I remember this vividly. I was living with my grandparents when it happened, and they watched the news while eating dinner. As soon as the story broke, my grandfather got up and walked right up to the TV. I was about to say something, but my grandmother gave me a death stare and I froze.
My grandfather sat back down and said that he flew out of Gander during the war, and there were times when landings were very difficult. Very quiet meal.

First thing the bastard did was shove one of those damned camera things down my nose and into my throat. It was one of the most horrible experiences in my life. No pain. Just constant unavoidable gagging. Gagging like you wouldn't believe. And then my stomach started playing along trying to wretch with whole body convulsive spasms. Never felt so weak and inhuman. I wanted to punch that f'er when it was over.

That woman in the video has some very specific, unique talents.
It's good I'm straight because there is absolutely no friggan way I could be gay. Right out.

Half Mushrooms
Half Onions
Half Olives
Just how are those four halves supposed to be distributed? Quarter chicken and mushrooms, quarter chicken and onions, quarter onions and olives, quarter olives and chicken? What if that's not how she wanted it? You'd think it would have been specified.

There is a company around Schulenberg, Texas that makes the most amazing corn nuggets candy. I can only find it at one gas station in Junction, which is on my way to San Diego.
Oma’s Choice. They also make a pretty good single serving buttermilk pie. Good road food. And German pumpkin butter, which is not good road food but amazing. The latter somehow ended up in a gas station a half hour north of me.

Here's what I used to do. I bought a red container of Folger's. Gagged it down until it was used up. Then I went back to buying the good bagged coffee grounds and stored it in the handy Folger's container. Now I have a nice wide mouthed glass jar for my coffee grounds. So I don't have to explain to people that I don't really drink Folger's.

I'll have you know that if you find yourself in the bathroom of the down stairs Bier Garten in Munich's Hoff Brau Haus, you will witness a still working Speibecken (or Kotzbecken to you fellow heathens).
THIS is the famous PUKE BASIN.
Incidentally, I asked one of my German friends if anyone every uses it since it appeared spotless. His answer surprised me. Depends if there are any Italians or French in town. They're delicate flowers when if comes to good beer.

Spartan Stadium has them. They line the male restroom walls, and are very efficient. I recall Michigan Stadium had gone with just peeing against the walls, which had a thin sheen of water running down them.
Presumably their fan base peed against the walls by habit, and the university adapted to it.

My husband dreamed HE had a c-section for triplet boys and one was blond, the other two Mexican. We did have a Navajo/Mexican college friend who came for dinner that night, so John may be the reason. His dream got two parts correct: the blond single boy and a c-section due to a large head as well as the rest of him.
I don't think I was scary, but when I was hungry, do not get in my way.
So gigantic (not from the back) that people let me in the front of the lines in stores. Got stuck in a turnstile at the airport picking up my mother (who said she got tears in her eyes seeing me).
I got tears in my eyes when frat boys mooed at me in the crosswalk near our house. They were in a convertible and I wanted to jump in and beat them but I was too big. Instead I sobbed and scared my husband until the mooing part when he laughed and then I laughed. Frat bastids.

Depends if you have a good reason to be around for another century. If everybody you ever loved is gone, would that truly be the best option? Maybe go back in time a decade to spend some quality time with some of your loved ones while they were still around? 10 years isn't much, but those 10 years might be worth more than a century to you.

Eh, they got theirs from the hex I put on them. Little twits. I should have climbed into the car just to see what they'd do.
My husband usually walked the park with me but was puny or something and I did it alone. In labor, to attempt to speed it up, we walked it twice. That kid was not coming normally, and I am thankful for the c-section or it would have been bad for him.Back then no sonograms were done unless medically necessary.
By the time my OB mentioned a section I did not care if he came out of my ear. The epidural was great!
Scheduled section for #2 due to the big head deal from their Daddy.Far less exciting and all was well once again.All done, altho I wanted one more and hubby talked me out of it. We know it would have been another boy.

As a RN I used to put tubes into nostrils to stomachs, and was pretty good at this or shoving things into people. No longer done, but I did it when people were bleeding with ulcers and iced saline lavage. Fun times for us all!
I was in my 20's but looked 16 and somehow convinced patients I knew what I was doing (I did, but do wonder what they thought as I have always looked younger). Had my RN cap on to prove I was not a candy striper wandering in. No one died on my watch who wasn't supposed to when I was charge nurse.
I was very good at starting IV's and liked that.Could still start an IV on anything. I see forehead veins (like Markle's) and want to give it a try. I don't have a forehead vein that bulges like hers, and think it's pretty weird.
Nurses are weird this way to size up your veins in public when bored. Or, I am. I also want to advise people to get moles checked. I really should not be loose in public.

For me last year, they had to bring out the vein-finder after I had fluid infiltration at least 3 times (which means they couldn't get a good line three times on a single IV, three times), and they had resorted to poking veins on the back of my hands. In the end, they shoved a line in my open arm into a large blood vessel.

I think he was just freaked out at how things were going. To make it more fun, the baby was 10dys late and I cried every morning he was late. He's still late for many things. I rarely cry.
The doc did not want to alarm me the way things were going, but did say the next day he was thankful the kid refused to go further as things would not have turned out so well for the King of the Baby Nursery.
My BIL, when he saw me, suddenly had pity he did not have prior. Said, "Wow, it was like you carried a 10lb of potatoes." Indeed. Women are amazing.

Sounds like they should always bring out the vein finder. Jeez. My favorite vein is the one below your wrist (on the inside: cephalic). Most people have good pipes there and can still use their hands. In the ED they just do it in your inner elbow. We were taught to start in the lower arm to free that one for emergencies.
In my 7yrs in the newborn nursery and step down NICU I had to start tiny IV's in baby's scalps. I hated that but did it when I had to.

The nursing ethics board that oversees the licensure of Oregon nurses has decided to take no action against the infamous nurse Camesha Hart, of Beaverton Oregon, who sent messages to Jews calling them “vermin” and “dogs” and saying she doesn’t treat animals.
In fact, they allowed her to renew her RN license for another two years, we found out last week.
Camesha Lynn Hart — a nurse of 22 years in Beaverton Oregon — found herself in an imbroglio of antisemitic proportions when she popped off a number of anti-Jew comments earlier this year in February and March 2025 on her Instagram page.

The only supportive one was my husband, who feared my wrath as he got me this way.
Our college friend we'd had to dinner (tacos) is half Navajo and half Mexican. So I am pretty sure he had something to do with the dream that night, as well as me declaring I could eat Mexican food every day.
I am used to telling the men in my family what I think. We drove cross country to a new job in FL when the baby was 6wks old. Stopped on my farm in MS and my brother stuck his head in the car and asked, "Is this your milking stall?" I told him to shut up and get out of my way.
And, yes, that baby had a growth spurt and ate a lot as we drove 8hrs/day for 3dys. The truckers probably liked me as we decided we could not stop every 1.5hrs and took our chances with him briefly out of his carseat.
This was in a Sentra with the toddler in his carseat in the front passenger seat (no airbags during the Civil War times). He did get in hot water trying to mess with the gear shift going over the Rocky Mountains. It was a fun time.

Boys? Mine once melted a block of cheddar cheese on a lightbulb (their lamp) when I let them make a tent in their room on a rainy FL day. I smelled something burning and that's what I found with them quite pleased, as they were camping.
The toddler youngest also gave the fish in their bathroom tank a fluoride treatment once. No one wondered why they died later. One side of the tank was smeared with toothpaste.
I refer to this as the chimp era of life with boys. My husband traveled a lot and I nearly went insane at times, but managed to raise them to be responsible adults. I never was admitted to the psych unit. I did call my husband during the chickenpox quarantine to come home. The only time I did this.

Bless her. The heat got to her. Our house was over a century old and he had to get a window unit for our bedroom. The only time I was happy that summer was in a pool. It was hideous.
My ancient car broke down one day that summer and I just left it in the street. Some men saw me leave it and pushed it out of the way. I didn't even care that I left it, but did thank them and called from somewhere to the man who supported me (I have blocked this part out). It was the old car he courted me in and proof I did not marry him for his money. His car was a stick shift and I did not learn how to drive it til we moved to FL.
It always freaked me out, when he was teaching me in the mountains, to feel the car roll a tiny bit backwards as I shifted into first gear. So I learned in FL.

I have often found myself in class, or in college, having missed most of the semester without the ability to withdraw. I used to run around trying to fix as much of it as I could, but the last few years when those dreams come up, I go, "Well, too late to do anything. I'll go off somewhere else and do something not so stressful." I still do occasionally have dreams where I have to do math, although it's been a couple of years since I had to do some calculus in my dreams (find the volume of a sphere with a hole drilled from one point through the center to the other side...had to wake up to finish that one).

Most often it’s my wife who’s more of a night person who wants to keep on talking , and she’ll asked me something she thinks is serious and I’ll do something like point at the dresser and say “yeah but we’ve got to take care of the cantaloupe patch here first”. So shell just say “okay put your head down you’re dreaming again.”

Another win for the Trump Administration.
A federal appeals court on Friday overturned Judge Talwani’s (already halted) orders blocking Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill provision that barred funding for Planned Parenthood.
The First Circuit Court of Appeals vacated Judge Talwani’s July orders granting preliminary injunctions blocking the provision.
The three-judge panel unanimously overturned Judge Talwani’s orders.

Occasionally I do dream I'm back in high school, and it's always the same. I can't remember where my locker is, no clue what classes I should be in, teachers bitching at me for being late, and again, since I know when I'm dreaming I find myself saying in the dream "hey, I graduated, they can kiss my ass, not a damn thing they can do to me. lol
One time though, I was actually back in present day and spent the whole dream wandering around and looking at all the changes.

A federal appeals court on Friday afternoon temporarily halted Judge Boasberg’s contempt hearings in the Alien Enemies Act deportations case scheduled for next week.
Earlier Friday, Judge James Boasberg made it clear that he was not backing off from his planned contempt hearings and threatened to pierce through attorney-client privilege in his order denying the government’s motion to reconsider.
Later Friday, a three-judge panel on the DC Circuit Court of Appeals temporarily halted Boasberg’s contempt hearings.
Judges Rao (Trump), Walker (Trump) granted an administrative stay pending further order of the court.
--minimu
Its about time Boasberg is removed from office. At the minimum, its time he was brought up on "conflict of interest" charges so that he can no longer sit on cases that involve the Trump Administration. Trump clearly lives inside Boasberg's head, and if Boasberg were *ethical* he would have already withdrawn from sitting on cases involving the current Administration.

I manage to see an ISS pass yesterday morning around here at 6:35AM. And there's another one, a little bit more south and not quite as high due around 5:45AM this morning.
These are almost perfect, getting high overhead, taking a long arc from the SW to the NE. It was a cool thing to see, and I'm gonna catch the one this morning for sure.
What surprised me was how far away I could see it. When it first popped up over the horizon this morning, the thing was just coming off Mexico into the Gulf a little north of the Yucatan. That seems a long way considering how low the ISS is, but the math works out. Maximum line of sight distance can be ~1400 miles for ISS orbital height.

I'm guessing you're probably considerably younger. Desperation to find a better job finally drove me to go to graduate school, and I was older than most of my colleagues. I will remove all mystery by pleading to having turned 70 in June of this year.
Btw, I attended the American Graduate School of International Management, better known as Thunderbird, located in Glendale, AZ. It was a great school, and did, indeed, help me get out of the dreary profession of mid-level commercial banking. Sadly, Thunderbird ran into financial problems a decade or so after I graduated, and was ultimately take over by the ASU system.

I don't know which part of the onion this is, but I suspect the brusband was her/the family's own idea, just to get him out of the gay London scene and into college in America. In fact, all that happened before she got into politics.
How/why that happened is a bit mysterious. I've seen quite a few Somali politicians on social media since this came out, all of them of course bitching about this racist hellhole and a promise to elevate Somali concerns above all others. I don't know how they all figured out that getting into office is the way to go in America, but it seems to me like they did. Ilhan did hold a lesser office before she made it into Congress.
As for how (the method), there's evidence that she sent thugs around and threatened Somali householders to vote for her or get beaten up, robbed, whatever.

Last memorable dream I had, was me pushing hubby in his wheelchair down a long slope. There were humps in the path (it was paved) and it was rather steep... Wheee!
I controlled our speed, and we rode down the slope like it was a rollercoaster. We were laughing and having fun, and then suddenly saw the end of the slope-- needed to stop, so I dug-in my feet and sent us into a long, slow, circular slide! Round and round, stopping at the 'landing' which was a level area, on the way to this large old-fashioned building which was our destination. (We were always so goofy like that...)
But there was some time left, so I asked hubby if he wanted to "do it again" down the bumpy slope? The look on his face, said yes-- but then he said "no, we better just go on to the appointment.
A bus was coming through, so I moved us to the side-- and then the ground began crumbling from under us. I screamed for help as I held his wheelchair in one hand and grasped at the edge with the other, to keep us from falling. *****UGH!!!*****

So I don't know if this was some outside campaign of Dems who figured "Hey, let's get some Black Muslim actual African America-haters to run for office! All white liberals know that if you don't vote for them, you're racist!" I think somehow Somalis figured it out.
As for Republicans being brain-dead, well, just look at the results. Who was eyeballing these enclaves as they were forming? Who was concerned about these low-achieving, poor, non-English-speaking refugees who weren't improving over time? Who was asking why a bunch of desert dwellers were showing up in Minnesota? Who was paying attention to their unvarying refrain of America-hatred, their blatant statements that they're more Somali than American, their preference for Sharia law if they could have it, the evidence of FGM going on in Somalia?
Well, ordinary people were, but politicians? lolol
Posted by: Blonde Morticia at December 13, 2025 02:01 AM (1N/bM)
More about Republicans being brain-dead, we all know of how AOC was recruited by the Justice Democrats. Now that is a smart organization that apparently went around quietly and ferreted out talkative, (wrongly) opinionated, charismatic people and used some expertise to get them into office. Changes are excellent that Justice Democrats got your tax dollars and mine to do their work while GOPers sat by calling for collegiality.
It's astonishing how far the Dems can push this shyte before (minimal and late) opposition from Republican lawmakers and policy makers.

Friday Night Cafe
Llanddwyn Island (Angelsea),
by Gareth Mon Jones
Australian sheep dog asks random park-goers to play Dog Biathalon, which seems to be part fetch, part hide-and-seek. Living in a low-trust society. Cat waves bye-bye. Hanging out. Golden retriever is very protective of the new kitten. Sneaking kisses. Steve Inman: Beatdown in Brazil. Internet "prankster" attempts to provoke strong men, succeeds beyond his expectations. "Man" shows he is very capable of beating the shit out of a woman. Against an actual man -- or against six other dudes who joined in -- not so much. Bringing a knife to a fistfight. He brought a steel rod to a carfight. The first two clips of motorcycle mayhem are worth the watch, because the iniquitous get some rough justice. But most of the other clips are just guys wiping out, and I can't really get into that. Attempting stunts may be stupid, but it's not immoral. I don't want to see guys get wiped just for being dopey guys. Do watch the first couple, though. Pro wrestling heel disrespects the wrong dad's kid. Ratchet bitch starts a fight with a woman while she has a confederate film it for TikTok. Unfortunately, she brought a nothing to a fist fight.

Quasi-willowed
There was a story of a guy at my university who did the oral defense of his thesis. In the customary ballet, he was excused after he finished and told to wait for the committee's decision.
An hour later he was still waiting and having a breakdown. Turns out his committee spent 20 seconds agreeing it was fine, then spent an hour discussing who would be the next president of the university.

So funny. He pretends he's doing a business rescue show where he, someone who took a handful of business classes at a mediocre college and got Bs and C's, offers "business advice" to business owners, but it's always these ludicrous scams and legal loophole plays and sometimes just absurd stunts.
Like in one he has an electronic store advertise a sale for 50 inch tvs for $20, but the fine print says you must be on line at a specific time, you must be wearing formal wear (tuxedos and gowns), and you can only reach the tvs by going through a hallway in which he has placed a real live alligator.

In 1990, the Soviets had a Miss KGB contest.

This occurred not long before the collapse of the Soviet Union, so Ms. Mayorova soon found herself without a job; however, she succeeded in landing a position with Penguin Facts, where she served as principal liaison with left-wing billionaire Geetus L. Mazuma, the so-called Pizza King. As previously noted, Mazuma has been donating huge sums of money to Penguin Facts for years in furtherance of his plan to corner the market on anchovies by destroying his main competitors, i.e., the entire penguin race. (The fact that people who order pizza with anchovies are also the sort of people who put cheese on their apple pie is a side issue which need not detain us from considering the more important issue of Spheniscidacide.)

Cloud Dancer also lands in a year when our built environment is drifting toward aesthetic sterilization, complete with more white and less friction. (The Development/Courtesy Pantone)
But Cloud Dancer’s ascent doesn’t happen in a vacuum. It lands in a moment when America’s political architecture is staging its own whitening. From the East Wing teardown to a planned paint-over of the Eisenhower Executive Office Building, the federal palette has converged on one directive: Make America White Again.

I don't think it's the smell, I think it is idea that we are "marking" them. Cats mark us as part of their territory or clan. If we then rub against them the feel dissed, thinking we are marking them. But I don't know, I don't have a cat sense of smell. Maybe they can tell but if that's the case, why would they want to live in our houses. Our whole world must smell worse than our fingers.

Those pies were good. Back in the 80's we had a McDonalds, a white castle, and a jack in the box all within pissing distance of each other. We would go to white castle and grab some burgers, then hit the McDonalds drive though next door for fries, a strawberry shake, and a few of those apple or cherry pies, and then feast on all of it in the parking lot. Many times we would just hit McDonalds and grab the shake, fries, and cherry pies. Its the shit that happened when you cruised around all night getting roasted. lol

Surprise! Maryland Governor and Candidate for Democrat Nominee for President Wes Moore Has Long History of Lying About His War Record and Academic Record
This is no disqualifier for a Democrat politician. Indeed, it's essentially a prerequisite.
Moore has a long history of Biden-like and "Danang Dick" like embellishment of his academic record and war record.
Maryland governor Wes Moore, now considered a serious prospect for the 2028 Democratic presidential nomination, got his big break in 2006. Fresh off a one-year deployment to Afghanistan, President George W. Bush awarded Moore, then 27, a White House fellowship, a prestigious, year-long internship during which he served as a special assistant to then-secretary of state Condoleezza Rice. It put Moore on the path to ultimately becoming Maryland's governor, and he won the fellowship--in the turbulent years after 9/11--claiming to be a "foremost expert" on radical Islam thanks to his academic work at Oxford University. "As a Rhodes Scholar, I took advantage of the opportunity and examined radical Islam in the Western Hemisphere," Moore wrote in his application to serve as a White House fellow, indicating that he had graduated from Oxford in 2003 with a Master of Letters, or MLitt, in international relations. "I completed my degree with honors and my research has led me to be touted as one of the foremost experts on the threat." The White House parroted the claim in a press release announcing the 2006 fellowship class, borrowing from Moore's application to note that his Oxford thesis, which it said was titled The Rise and Ramifications of Radical Islam in the Western Hemisphere, had "earned him praise as one of the foremost experts on the topic." That a 27-year-old could claim to be a "foremost expert" on the Islamic threat based on a year at an American military base in Afghanistan and two years at Oxford could be excused away as an ambitious young man's puffery. But on close examination, Moore's claims of expertise and of being a serious scholar completely unravel, as do his claims, also on his White House fellowship application, that he was working toward an Oxford doctorate. The problems start with confusion--which neither Moore's staff nor Oxford's registrars were willing or able to clear up--about when Moore completed his studies, when he received his degree, whether he submitted his thesis, and what the title of the work was. In his White House fellowship application--which is public record--Moore wrote that he graduated from Oxford in 2003. But in the résumé attached to that application, Moore reported a different graduation date: June 2004. Asked to reconcile the two dates, a spokesman for the governor didn't provide a photograph of Moore's degree, but rather, a "degree confirmation," generated last week by Oxford's registrar's office, indicating Moore completed his graduate studies as a full-time student and "has been awarded the degree," but has not yet been issued a formal certificate. The "degree confirmation" generated by Oxford gives another contradictory date, showing that Moore completed his full-time graduate studies in November of 2005, a full four years after he began his Oxford studies, though a master's degree typically takes two years to earn. According to Moore, by November 2005, the month when Oxford now says Moore completed his master's studies, he was serving in the 82nd Airborne Division in Afghanistan. He also says he began working as an investment banker at Deutsche Bank in London in March 2004. ... The story does fit a narrative, Moussa is right about that. But it is one that is likely to be problematic for Moore, just as it was for Minnesota governor Tim Walz (D.) when he stepped onto the national stage. The narrative, backed now by well-established matters of fact, is that when you scratch the surface of many of Moore's braggadocious claims, there is something off, something a little untruthful about them. Moore claims to have been a doctoral candidate after he received his master's degree, for example, but he and Oxford declined to provide the name of his academic adviser or any evidence he was enrolled as such. ... The mystery surrounding the title of and content of Moore's thesis could be resolved with a cursory review of the document. But that, too, poses a problem for Moore. His office could not produce a copy of the document since we began requesting it in early November. And good luck finding it at Oxford's legendary Bodleian Library, which archives all MLitt theses from the university's graduate students. A senior librarian told the Free Beacon she couldn't find "any trace" of Moore's paper, because he never submitted it. .... The confusion about when and where Moore was when he was doing his graduate studies--along with the convenient change in the title and subject matter of his missing thesis--is part of a pattern of self-serving, self-aggrandizing, and not entirely true claims that have persistently dogged, yet heretofore not tripped up, the ambitious Democrat.
And of course he claims to be from the 'hood but he's really the son of a comfortable middle class family. If this Black Walter Mitty is a world-renowned expert on Islamic terrorism, why have no other terrorism experts ever heard of him?
>b?Moore claimed on his 2006 White House fellowship application, for example, to have been inducted into the Maryland College Football Hall of Fame, an organization that doesn't exist; that he received a Bronze Star for his service in Afghanistan, which he had not; and that he was born in Baltimore, which he was not.
The questions and discrepancies surrounding Moore's missing graduate thesis notwithstanding, his claim to be a "foremost expert" on the threat of radical Islam is ridiculous. "I have never come across Gov. Moore's name in the course of my academic life," said the French political scientist Gilles Kepel, described by the New York Times as "France's most famous scholar of Islam." Several other prominent academics in the field, including Lorenzo Vidino, the director of the Program of Extremism at George Washington University, said they've never heard of Moore in the context of any scholarly work. "I have been studying political Islam in the West for the last 25 years and Moore's name has never popped up on my radar," Vidino told the Free Beacon. "It's a small, niche field, I'd know." Former CIA case officer Reuel Marc Gerecht, now a scholar of Islamic terrorism at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, said he's never heard of Moore in the context of his expertise in Islamic terrorism. "If there was an up-and-coming scholar in radical Islam, if he had written something novel, then yes, I would certainly have heard of it," Gerecht said. "This is news to me."

Because they are sociopathic liars even among themselves as everything is struggle to elevate their perceived group status from teh common people.
I have copies of my thesis on disk, printed copy, one in my department's library and my dissertation is available likewise except the dissertation is stowed in the library and on abstract databases.
Have personal and electronic copies of those as well. I even have old typed papers from college if they were important to me.
So, the answer is they lie so frequently that the heuristic is just figure the Democrat (like their auxiliary Main Stream Media) is lying when their lips move.

The Week in Woke
Joy Reid retweeted -- "amplified," as they say -- a race-grifter claiming "Jingle Bells" is, get this, racist. Remember, you are the ones engaging in "racial grievance" when you say you're sick to death of being endlessly scapegoated for black failure.
A new report finds that injecting people with superphysiological levels of artificial hormones increases their all-cause mortality. Wow, I did not see that coming. I mean, yes I knew this would kill people, I just didn't think that anyone in "The Science (TM)" would dare to do any actual science about trans mutilations.
Joy Reid is spending December amplifying a claim that "Jingle Bells" is racist, reposting a video to her 1.3 million followers that tries -- and fails -- to turn one of America's most familiar Christmas songs into a racial flashpoint. The clip she chose to boost offers no proof, only speculation and academic flair that collapse the moment you examine the song's history or even read the lyrics. The video leans on the fact that composer James Lord Pierpont served in the Confederacy and had written minstrel tunes earlier in his life. But none of that makes "Jingle Bells" itself racist, and the video never demonstrates otherwise. Background isn't evidence, and Reid's repost doesn't provide any. It also highlights a Boston plaque claiming Pierpont wrote the song "to make fun of black people," and cites an assertion that its first public performance -- then titled "The One Horse Open Sleigh" -- may have taken place in blackface in 1857. Even if that performance involved blackface, that reflects the entertainers, not the content of the song. And the content is indisputable. The original lyrics -- widely available -- aren't about race, caricature, or anything remotely tied to minstrelsy. They're about sleigh rides, winter spills, young flirtation, and the carefree joy of youth.
Biology in Medicine
@biologyinmed It is not only the HHS report warning of the irreversible long term risks of Oestrogen used as a cross sex hormone.. A new study reports: Known risks
- cardiovascular disease
-infertility
-pulmonary embolism
-stroke
Emerging 'warning signals' of increased risk
-early mortality
- pancreatitis
-testicular, thyroid and breast cancer
-autoimmune disease Prescribing of cross sex hormones in children and young adults must be stopped.
The paper is here. Remember that alleged study that proves we need DEI? The one cited by Justice Ketangi D-EI when arguing for DEI forever? The study claimed that white doctors kill black babies. That turns out to be bunk -- fake science -- but what is even more interesting is that the same study found that the death rates of white babies increased when attended by black doctors. In other words, following the logic of the "study" -- we need black doctors for black patients, but also, white patients must also not have black doctors. White patients need white doctors. You might be thinking, Wow, I never heard anyone cite that part of the study. That's because the "scientists" who did this study omitted that part of their findings from their published paper, because they didn't want to "undermine" the "narrative" they were trying to establish.
Hank Johnson, the forefather of the field of Buoyant Tectonic Plate Theory -- that Guam may "tip over" if too many people immigrate there --- declares that America is, just as radical Iranian hate-mullahs say, "the Great Satan."
The August 2020 study in the prestigious Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) concluded that the gap in mortality rates between black newborns and white newborns declines by 58% if the black newborns are under the care of black physicians. A possible driver of the phenomenon could include a "spontaneous bias" by white physicians toward the babies, the researchers wrote. The paper's most high-profile booster was Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, who cited it as evidence for the benefits of affirmative action in her dissent in the 2023 Supreme Court ruling Students for Fair Admissions v. Harvard, which found that universities that considered the race of college applicants had violated the equal protection clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. "For high-risk Black newborns, having a Black physician is tantamount to a miracle drug: it more than doubles the likelihood that the baby will live," reads an amicus brief filed by the Association of American Medical Colleges. "Yet due to the enduring and significant underrepresentation of minorities in the health professions, many minority patients will not receive care from a racially diverse team or from providers who were trained in a diverse environment."But the study's methods have been called into question. A September 2024 replication effort concluded that the original study authors did not statistically control for very low birth weight newborns at the highest risk of dying. Applying that control zeroed out any statistically significant effect of racial concordance on infant mortality. Now, evidence has emerged that the paper's lead author buried information in order to tell a tidier story than the one his methods and data originally illustrated. A key data point was edited out of the body of the paper, apparently because it muddled the downstream policy implications of the study, according to documents obtained through the Freedom of Information Act by the nonprofit Do No Harm, which opposes identity politics in medical research and clinical practice.
CNN
@CNN Black newborn babies in the US are more likely to survive childbirth if they are cared for by Black doctors, but three times more likely to die when looked after by White doctors, a study finds. https://cnn.it/347NlE1 Aug 18, 2020
The study originally asserted that white babies died less frequently with white doctors. "White newborns experience 80 deaths per 100,000 births more with a black physician than a white physician, implying a 22% fatality reduction from racial concordance," an unpublished draft reads. But the study's lead author Brad N. Greenwood wrote in the margin: "I'd rather not focus on this. If we're telling the story from the perspective of saving black infants this undermines the narrative." "That's not how scientists speak," Ian Kingsbury, director of research at Do No Harm, told the Daily Caller News Foundation. "It's not a smoking gun, but it's certainly suggestive they were pushing one narrative or another." The data point was axed.
"Concordance appears to bring little benefit for White newborns," the paper reads.
While omitted in the paper's body, the data point can be found in the appendix as part of a logistic model. Unlike the linear regression highlighted in the paper, a logistic model is more appropriate for binary questions like whether a newborn survives or dies, according to Ted Frank, a senior attorney with the Hamilton Lincoln Law Institute, which filed an amicus brief in favor of Students for Fair Admissions.
Greenwood, the Maximus Corporate Partner Professor of Business at George Mason University, wrote another note to his coauthors that may indicate he had a predetermined desired conclusion, a strong correlation between physician race and clinical outcomes, the FOIA documents suggest.
... The study has been cited 507 times in the scientific literature. But the study has made a big impact outside of academia too. Published in August 2020 amid the Black Lives Matter protests, the study has generated more public discussion in the laypress and on social media than 99% of scientific studies published in the last five years, according to Altmetric. The study has received coverage in 340 outlets including CNN, USA Today, and the Washington Post.

When doing biometric enrollments in Afghanistan, the people there don't indicate ethnicity as "white" they use "wheat".
And "white"/"wheat"/"snow"/whatever is stupid to characterize ethnicity anyway. Ethnos is the Greek term for nations. Nations traditionally has been the collection of a Family, as in the Table of Nations in the Scriptures post Babel.
Babel was a separation of a whole unit of people into distinct families that acquired a new language and in the days of Peleg dispersed around the globe.
With enough Somalian (or Appalachian) styled match-making and child bearing, Mendel's Genetics pretty much explains the so-called "racial characteristics" of these resulting nations/ethnicities.
I hope this helps explain why I tire of this sophomoric nonsense of "races".

When you watch (as just one example) those videos where the abolitionist guy (abortion abolitionist) sets up his sign on a college campus and 19-year old and 22-year old girls walk buy him and sling profanity while *bragging* about the abortions they've had, I find myself wondering what kind of influence they're under. Because the college girls of my day *might* have had an abortion, but they sure weren't *proud* of it, and certainly weren't shouting about it in the public square.

The euphemism treadmill is something to see. "Retarded" came into use because the previous terms like "moron" an "imbecile" had become pejorative and not nice. So "retard" was the new nice word.
And then, because any word describing something bad or undesirable, it became an insult as well. Go figure. Just stick with the original terms.

Many years ago, Google Fiber was supposed to hit Austin and because the city is built upon limestone, buried cable was a No Go, so Google requested shared space on utility poles.
The city agree, only if Google would provide free internet to ALL of the schools, government buildings, and the list kept expanding as different special interest groups got wind of the feeding frenzy and their lobbyists were dropping out of the ceiling with demands for free hook-ups and service.
Google, after looking at the long and growing list of freeloaders dropped plans to do Fiber.

Retired law academic but,
A) most trial lawyers and judges are not well versed in statistics and juries are damn near innumerate even college educated folks.
B) most law schools are of the left just like colleges and likewise their graduates have been indoctrinated to the key tenets of leftist religion.
C) you have two types of trial lawyers--those that use threat of a trial to negotiate but almost always settle and then you have the ball busters ultra type A sorts. It takes the ball buster ultra type A sort to ignore political and community pressure in discovery motions for some really seamy relevations about the practice of medicine
D) relative likelihood of payoff. Truck accidents involving cars are boring but trucking firms have better insurance than many individuals and juries like companies less than individuals. So steady sure payoff, low risk. Challenging troonism is akin to spitting in the eye of the elites and the uncertainty of payoff means high risk in investing scarce firm time.

Politicians are opportunists as a class and by being the odd woman out after Jan 6 and a newcomer, it raised her relevance (and donations) ensuring her reelection in 2022. She latched back on to McCarthy's bandwagon to get more relevance but her outspoken defense there meant she took an L when Johnson was picked. Her actions during Johnson's speakership so far made her toxic to the GOP House leaders by trumpeting shit like Epstein at key voting times on bills like the shutdown, the BBB, etc. And she sided with Massie on issues like Iran, etc. plus her prior comments about Jews over the last several years have in fact painted a target on her back for being primaried. Atlanta has a very prominent old and Jewish business community and they were not amused by her antics and in turn that meant the state GOP was not amused.
Then she started in on Trump and after all this was amazed that he didn't support her run for gov or Senate and that the polling data did not look good

I remember when gay marriage got shut down at the polls in California a decade or two ago. There was a lot of screeching about Evil White Religious Men yadda-yadda-yadda, until someone looked into the matter and figured out that the deciding difference was...black church groups. These often vote for lefty causes, but not always. Gay marriage was a bridge too far.
Oddly, the screeching shut down almost as soon as this was pointed out.

My point being we 'one of the few good ones.' I am not sure there are any, just those who are more open about their antagonism or better at hiding it. Rand Paul, Ted Cruz, whoever just sat on their hands.
While everyone contends 'she just did it for clout' then my immediate response is 'then why didnt anyone do it for principle?'

She forgot loyalty as to who brung ya (constituents and Trump) to the dance and wanted to dance around the room with other partners like Massie, McCarthy, lefties. And her constituents/Trump/Johnson noticed that despite bringing her to the dance, she wanted to dance with the loonies.
Now she is trying to get someone to take her home to Griftsville whether they be left, right, Islamic, or polka dot.
If you notice, Mace never went after Trump directly nor did she piss off Johnson much. Boebert, having her scandal, has kept a lower profile and voted with her caucus.

Recall, Noam and other DOJ wagged their asses at him and dared him to proceed with contempt by saying "we followed advice of counsel" when he demanded they tell him why they didn't turn the planes around.
What's amusing is, the language they've used is not at all deferential and barely conceals their contempt.
Bonerburger and the radical left that's encouraging him are too dull to realize the DOJ wouldn't write that if they didn't already know they were going to win.
He can't support a criminal contempt case on "followed advise of counsel."

Leftists apparently have this weird notion that it isn’t likely to have two-way shooting ranges. Maybe this is a faulty assumption.
The manner in which they cavalierly dismiss atrocities perpetrated in the name of progressive nonsense over the last 50 years or so makes it inevitable things are going to get unspeakably bad. It’s baked in the cake at this point.

I think I got all of my venting done below about Candyass Owens. But you never know. Something else might pop into my head.
What an evil woman. I hope her babies are being raised somewhat normally, by a nanny or a dog. Maybe her husband is/was normal and lends a hand.
I can only imagine the anger and bitterness seeping from Candace and spilling over to her babies. I read she popped out the last two quickly , but don't know and won't read about it.
I do feel badly for Mrs. Kirk having to deal with this insanity after losing her husband so violently. One does not expect this from former "friends." One does not expect this from a "conservative," or if she claims to be Christian, our Candace. No clue.
I am calling it here: she is evil and starting tonight I will pray against her and her ragged band of followers. Miserable wretch who was tossed aside by her own "true love," is how I see her. Pathetic, jealous, paranoid schizophrenic, reduced to slander.
The pain of rejection.

And now you have mastered politics of DC. The primary motivation (and this has been empirically tested btw) is to run and win reelection. A guy named Anthony Downs came up with the essential guide to two party systems. Activists are on the left or right of a bimodal distribution of voters. Activists pull candidates to the right (GOP-donors to the left now) or left (Dem donors+activists) in primaries and then candidates race toward the district, state, or even country's median voter in the general.
They view elections pragmatically as to what guarantees your reelection. What you might want to know about MTG's district is that is has a lot of old Larry McDonald's, Newt Gingriches, etc. voters and they dislike Washington as it runs with a passion. So supporting the Jan 6 played well with voters in her district, played well with Trump, and given her very junior status, helped her win a primary for reelection in 2022 after redistricting.

Long and the short of it. It played well in her district when she was primaried in 2022 by a GA GOPe type. And if you see above, not avoiding but simply cannot type that fast.
New representatives are the most like a weathervane and unpredictable. See George Santos (predictable on Cong voting but not on scandal), Lauren Boebert (a bit of scandal), Mace (toxic past relationship and past sex abuse issues), etc. Some, like the squad, were birds of a feather using their new shiny donor network (smurfed ActBlue very possible here from foreign sources), some plan to run for higher office from teh beginning, and some plan to advance in the House leadership (Stefanik for example until the gov. opportunity popped up along with a UN nomination to raise her status).
Those that take sudden u turns often have the people around them (staff etc. change) and family can also affect issues (reportedly in MTG's case but dunno if accurate). Some, like Justin Amash, have business interest that Orangeman bad threatened (tool import biz).

Fast forward lots of years, and Google decides to start with Google Fiber. Problem is, they don't know yet how to run a company, nor do they have the equipment. So they went looking for help.
My city said, "we've got a fiber network you can buy and run! We'll charge you a dollar to buy it! Only 1 teeny, tiny problem: we lost track of where all the fiber actually is, so we have no idea where the actual lines are!"
Google took it, and thus my old college town was one of the very first Google fiber cities. Took everyone by surprise, because Provo, Utah does not sound like a place Google would be "first"

25-year-old Kamalpreet Singh killed a 29-year-old man on the morning of December 11 after he crushed the victim’s vehicle between two trucks while driving northbound on SR 167.
Singh likely obtained his CDL in Democrat hellhole of California, since he resided there. He is facing a vehicular homicide charge.

Four Years Too Late, The New York Times Admits That Biden Pursued a Reckless Policy of Unlimited Illegal Immigration -- But Only In Service of New Narrative That Only Biden Favored Open Borders While the Rest of the Democrat Party Opposed It
Big Brother is rewriting history and deleting old files and airbrushing old photos as we watch them do it. Kind of a pattern with the propaganda media, isn't it? Admitting the Democrats were wrong -- lied, actually -- about covid and Biden's cognitive fitness and now open borders. And then creating a new narrative absolving all Democrats of those lies going forward.See, his "top advisors" -- who can be taken to represent the real Democrat Party -- warned him not to throw open the borders and plunge the country into "chaos," but Biden -- and only Biden -- was determined to impose an open borders policy on the Democrats who heroically resisted this folly.
How Biden Ignored Warnings and Lost Americans' Faith in Immigration
The Democratic president and his top advisers rejected recommendations that could have eased the border crisis that helped return Donald Trump to the White House.
In the weeks after Joseph R. Biden Jr. was elected president, advisers delivered a warning: His approach to immigration could prove disastrous. Mr. Biden had pledged to treat unauthorized immigrants more humanely than President Donald J. Trump, who generated widespread backlash by separating migrant children from their parents. But Mr. Biden was now president-elect, and his positions threatened to drastically increase border crossings, experts advising his transition team warned in a Zoom briefing in the final weeks of 2020, according to people with direct knowledge of that briefing. That jump, they said, could provoke a political crisis. "Chaos" was the word the advisers had used in a memo during the campaign. They offered a range of options to avert that crisis, by better deterring migrants. Mr. Biden seemed to grasp the risk. But he and his top aides failed to act on those recommendations. The warnings came true, and then some. After Mr. Biden became president, migrant encounters at the southern border quickly doubled, then kept rising. New arrivals overwhelmed border stations, then border towns, and eventually major cities like New York and Denver. Anger over illegal migration helped return Mr. Trump to the presidency, and he has enacted even more aggressive policies than those Mr. Biden first campaigned against. Mr. Trump has drawn outrage from Democrats by sending masked agents to target immigrants, often aided by National Guard soldiers.
Biden did All the Bad Things, you guys, single-handedly. Biden was the only thing wrong with the Democrat Party. Now that he's out, the Democrat Party is Perfect Again (TM).
Walter Kirn summed this effort up as the Democrats "trying to establish a new encyclopedia entry" on this chapter of political history so that future voters will only be able to read this version of events.
... But a New York Times examination of Mr. Biden's record found that he and his closest advisers repeatedly rebuffed recommendations that could have addressed the border crisis faster, and eased what became a potent issue for Mr. Trump as he sought to return to the White House and justify the aggressive tactics roiling American cities today. Former Biden administration officials told The Times that Mr. Biden and his circle of close confidants -- including Ron Klain, who was chief of staff during the president's first two years, Mike Donilon, Jennifer O'Malley Dillon and Anita Dunn -- made two crucial errors. First, they underestimated the scale of migration that was coming. Second, they failed to appreciate the political reaction to that migration -- believing that stronger enforcement would alienate Latino and progressive voters, and also that a border surge would not be an important issue to most voters. Those calculations would later prove to be mistaken, with many voters, including Latinos, citing immigration as a reason for supporting Mr. Trump in 2024. "Everybody was reacting to the excesses of the Trump administration," said Cecilia Muñoz, who helped shape immigration policy in the Obama administration and oversaw domestic and economic policy for the Biden transition team.Of course -- it wasn't the Democrats' fault, it was Trump's. Biden only embraced open borders Because Trump. This wasn't the Democrat Party position or anything. Except... that in the Democrat primary presidential debate of 2016, scheduled by Hillary Clinton for Christmas Eve so that no one could see it, both Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders (formerly in favor of border control) vowed that no illegal aliens -- not one -- would be deported under their would-be presidencies.

If Trump continues to make 2.5 million illegals self deport every year he has left as president that means that he would be on the extreme low end of getting rid of what joe biden let into the country illegally.
That math ain't mathin because there were 20+ million illegals already in the country.

That 2.5 million is only 9 months, through the end of October, and ICE increased funding takes effect in January.
Per year, it's going to be over 3 million for the first year, and ICE is going to have more feet on the ground to push more out for the final three years.

I've been saying this for years. There is an idea in some minority communities that they're entitled to rob and beat up white people as a form of what I call "Street reparations." Not official reparations, but reparations taken by people through "self-help."

Easy enough to change that--frame clawing back that stolen taxpayer money from the thieves as a treasure hunt for people that report it and find the miscreants. And put on the posters of the wanted thieves--Dead or Alive reward paid.
It is also enough to consider that we apply culturally appropriate punishments to these thieves. Lopping off arms will make them easier to identify in a crowd and yet be culturally sensitive to our differences. Somalis get to pick, either adopt our ways or we treat you like you were back home in Somalia.

The leftists in all of the western countries have been doing two interrelated things for several years, if not decades.
1. Trying their hardest to emasculate men, decrying toxic masculinity, deriding those who want to serve their country (unless they are a cross dresser), insisting that women are girl bosses and that men are irrelevant, and doping boys to prevent them from behaving like boys.
2. Importing as fast as they are able a large population of military age men from countries where women are seen as property and free for the taking, and using police powers to ensure that these men are not punished for whatever they do.
I think it is pretty obvious what their plan is.

What do you think about this idea I've been mulling over:
The "Positivist fallacy".
I think Positivism, both of Comte and Vienna School, has met enough dead-ends--and really formalistic self-reference problems--that it should be able to be dispensed with unless the writer can produce a new wrinkle.
Otherwise, we must only restrict ourselves to the objective traits of objective entities, which leaves Science little to offer as well.

I'm halfway through the article and it's stamped all over with "political." A political crisis, a political disaster, political chaos. Political opposition was the danger.
Nowhere (yet) does the Times consider the actual danger and damage done to the country by a massive population of illegal aliens, many of whom were violent criminals with criminal intent when they crashed the border.
Nowhere do they consider whether getting rid of them now is a good idea.
Still reading...

Eh, I am frankly rusty on epistemology as I haven't taught methods course in a long while. But positivism is closely aligned with the age of Reason and materialism and subject to the same limits. Our reasoning ability is always less than perfect because we are meat puppets and we will never have omniscience. That goes for AI as it is a human tool, not sentient so far, and thus subject to the limits of its makers in reasoning and knowledge.
That being said, I was always a pragmatist and probabilistic type of empiricist. Same as the old paradox of Q: Who shaved the Spanish Barber--A: follow him around and find out.
There are always propositions not amenable to empirical analysis (and thus positivist tests) due to bad data, impossible to prove or disprove, etc. But some are to a degree.

Dems shoot themselves in the foot way too often. Why do democrats continue to think that soft on immigration approach is necessary to keep Latino support?
It was literally trump and Republicans who stopped a border security bill. Democrats want to fix immigration. Punishing employers of undocumented immigrants (while granting the right amount of temporary visas) would be the best route.
Also stopping mega corporations like Blackstone from mass house buying, and reasonable limit to properties owned by smaller landlords or a higher tax of some sort would help keep housing costs reasonable.

This morning I picked it up and tossed it over the fence for the neighbor's chickens. This afternoon, the youngest kitten (6 months?) found it and played haki-mouse with it, and then when she saw me watching came trotting back with it proud as can be.
So she got a good treat for being a good huntress and I tossed the remains into the compost heap.

Well, it's taken as typical that Karl Popper, the synthesizer of the falsification demarcation of Science fell out of favor with and eventually debunked Carnap-ian positivism. (As Rudolph Carnap fathered the Vienna School).
After all, "Turing Machines" can never be instantiated if, by definition they have "unlimited tape". (Or no defined upper-bound, as I prefer).

At some point, as an empiricist, you have to turn away from edge cases. Interesting from a philosophical viewpoint like whether we are in a simulated universe or inside a black hole but I have enough to chew on day to day without worrying about the infinite.
Popper was an interesting case as he was a bridge from the older Age of Reason cult to the newer problems that came from areas of study that rely upon really bad data--sociology, history, political science, and even economics. Never was particularly relevant in theology, cosmology, or other fields, perhaps even quantum mechanics, where we simply cannot positively prove or disprove our theories. The observational equivalence problem also appears as you would find in studies of relativity. Simply put, our frame of reference determines our reality.

That's because you cannot derive a moral code from the particulars of instances of moralizing behavior.
Moralizing behavior is inherent in men who wants to control what he or she cannot outside their own physical enforcement. I must enlist societal "norms".

I actually found out, via a scholar on Popper, that Popper himself cannot be totally blamed for this. "Popper's" writing on intolerant tolerance apparently consists of TWO footnotes in his writing.
Thus it is mainly people taking crude notions of Popper and running with it.
Definitely either Popper did not foresee (or he simply can be ignored) people moving the "intolerance" goalposts to being increasingly intolerant of viewpoints on the basis of arguing that some other viewpoint is "intolerant". Thus bootstrapping the intolerance of actually more tolerant viewpoints.

You can argue that morality is the formal setting out of tactics within a society that improve the possibility of success and continuation of the society, and the success of the individual within the society; though none of the moral precepts can be generated through logic, analysis of them can provide the basis of ethics, which can help leverage morality to provide greater success - hopefully providing enough understanding of the situation to determine if it is a good idea to change anything.

Still reading the article here, you slackers. Nowhere does it consider just who was running the country, and what role sheer dementia played in Biden's acts.
"Why Mr. Biden waited so long to effectively seal the border has become one of the defining questions of his presidency." lol, the great enigma!

It means the NEED for a Leader to follow is a weakness to overcome. There is only on thing that shapes history just as it shapes the course of each Individual's lives -- the power of IDEAS.
That good ones replace the bad ones, and those at the root of it be held to pay the ultimate prices.
That any compromise between food and poison can result in nought but death.
That the only thing necessary for Evil to prosper is for good men to do absolutely nothing. Why? Because the truely evil are abetted by the Venal and the WEAK. period.
LIBS believe they can fake History and Reality just as they would fake reality (and factually did) of IceKingJOE.
Remember who did this:
"to leave now we would send a message to terrorists ...." -- Bill Clinton '93 just before he pulled out of Somalia.
To abandon this area now -- and to rely only on efforts against alQaeda from a distance ... -- OBAMA'09
What is the vital national interest? -- JoeBiden on Retreat from Afghanistan.

Indiana Cucks Refuse to Redraw Congressional Map Even As Democrats Attempt to Impeach Trump Again (and Will Impeach Him Once They Retake the House)
Fuck these people. Primary them all.
They fiddle as Rome burns and call themselves just for doing so.Republicans have a majority in the state senate, but only a minority of them voted in favor of the map. They weren't betrayed by a few rogue members -- the majority of them joined the Democrats to get Trump impeached in January 2026. The Democrats are not hiding their plans.
The Republican-controlled Indiana state Senate voted Thursday to reject the redrawn redistricting map that could have potentially meant an increase of two GOP U.S. House members in the 2026 midterm elections. The defeat of the map represents a setback to President Donald Trump who had strongly advocated for its passage by the state Senate. Also, there have been multiple visits from Vice President JD Vance and calls from Speaker of the House Mike Johnson (La.), attempting to persuade enough members of the Senate to pass the redrawn map. Though the GOP-controlled state House had approved the map last week, according to NBC News, it failed in the state Senate by a vote of 31-19.
The House voted on Thursday to table a motion to impeach President Donald Trump. The so-called privileged motion to force the House to act was introduced by Texas Democratic Rep. Al Green, according to The Hill. A Republican motion to table the resolution passed by a vote of 237-140, with 47 Democrats voting present and 23 voting with the Republicans to table it. Tabling means to set it aside indefinitely without further debate. Green has repeatedly introduced resolutions to impeach President Trump, both during his first term in office and now three times this year, since Trump's return to office. His latest resolution has two impeachment articles. The first article is for "Abuse of Presidential Power by Calling for the Execution of Members of Congress." That was in reference to Trump's response last month to the video made by six Democrats telling members of the military that they don't have to follow unlawful orders.Many Democrats voted for the impeachment. Some voted present and some voted to table it. But the latter Democrats only ducked the impeachment vote because they don't want the public thinking they are revenge-minded crazies before they're in a position to actually achieve their revenge-crazy impeachment. See, they are doing what they do every two or four years, tamping down on their more extreme elements to make themselves look good for a critical election. They want to win. We don't. Our own "representatives" are scheming with the Democrats to bring Trump down.

Hence why I'm very nervous about 2026. I don't believe all the doomsaying and leftwing ops about the economy or "affordability" or whatever stupid fake buzzword they pulled out of some fag's ass. I think Trump is doing a great job, and the country is clearly improving across the board.
But I'm worried that we just don't want this badly enough. We just don't. I see no indications that we are as fired up to vote as Democraps. It's not even close. 2026 will be 100% about turnout. Whoever shows up will win. The Democraps will surely show up. Will we?

I’m taking a moment to just bask in the system working as it should. The fact that our voices made a difference.
"The system working as it should" would have never comsidered such a measure. And, as always, Fuck Trump.
This isn't a principled stand. It's just self interested opportunism. They're worried about accidentally gerrymandering themselves out of a job in the event of blue wave.
I deliberately didn’t follow this today because I feared/assumed the worst. Boy, was I wrong, and am I happy about that!!!
Lmaooooo get fucked Donald. Props to all the senate republicans that stood up to the pressure campaign. We may not always see eye to eye on the issues but I salute your courage on this.
they only did this because they're afraid of getting screwed if diluted districts trend to the left next year, which is absolutely going to happen. I wouldn't be surprised if the No votes were in those more purple proposed districts. And absolutely fuck Donald.

Our failures are self-reinforcing.
Trump's winning is the counter to that. He has restored some vitality to the country but still many do not see our civilization as the winning team.
Over at Insty there is a post about a Chinese Spy/Professor who felt he would "always return to China" after spending life working/spying in USA.
Many Chinese immigrants in West see us as a losing civilization. They will never assimilate because, why switch to losing side?
Same with muzzies. Same with Somalians. Same with Mexicans.
You see the problem? I am saying that even Americans often see our side as ultimate losers. We have to fix that.

They haven't quite swept them but there is an obvious pattern.
In areas with poor voter security the Dems are getting normal offyear election numbers and the Rs are getting a fraction of that.
In areas with stronger vote security both sides are getting a fraction of their off year results.
So there problem is two fold:
Conservative voters are not showing up
Leftists are printing ballots with impunity

It might be D+4. Maybe.
And the amount of redistricting since 2020, including this year (and FL next year) is going to make a D+4 environment barely enough for a majority, maybe even not enough.
Jeffries might end up with a majority of like 3-5.

Earlier this year they were arguing their were no Epstein clients outside of Epstein himself, Maxwell, and Prince Andrew and anyone that claimed otherwise was a racist conspiracy theorist.
Then the change in narrative went out and suddenly of course Trump was an Epstein client!
And as so more evidence comes out and it doesn't point to Trump but does point to various leftwing celebs and pols they'll go back to arguing it was all fake.

Problem though in a single member district, first past the post election, you will only get two main political parties (see Duverget's Law). Nigel is trying to pull off Reform as killing off the Conservative party but if you notice, Labor is in charge there with a massive majority despite only getting 34 percent of the total vote. Conservatives and Reform together got 38 percent. Labor got 412 Seats, Conservative 121, Reform got 5.
So Labor is sitting on a 100 seat cushion and can do anything it wants for the next four years including flood the country with ringers, jail the opposition for social media posts, etc.

One excuse that the Indiana Republicans put out for not redistricting is that Trump urging them to do so offended them, and so they stubbornly dug in their heels.

I am not saying that Conservatives did not have it coming but it takes about 7-10 years for a new party to become competitive for control. Canada is another example when the Progressive Conservative Party of Mulroney went belly up in the 1993 elections and did not regain even minority control of government until Harper in 2011. It was a long slog to get even over a hundred seats for Conservatives.

How come Republicans redistricting in those states isn't a good omen but Indiana not going along portends doom?
Posted by: JackStraw at December 12, 2025 03:52 PM (viF8m)
======
People are letting special elections (which are not predictive) drive them to fear.
I actually wonder if overperformance in specials now is a unique phenomenon that actually indicates D ceilings. I'm not sure how to work it out mathematically, but the specials from 2023 and 2024 indicated huge overperformance for D's in 2024.
But D's lost.
Is it that their coalition are becoming only the super voters? That their leaners have abandoned them in the aggregate? I don't know...not enough data to really even start an analysis.
But it's an interesting idea.

The TN special election was interesting. The narrative for weeks was midwest AOC was going to rock TN and flip a red seat. She lost by 9 in a R+10 district. In other words, she performed to the expected loss.
Special election have never been an indicator of anything other than a snapshot in time. Democrats are a little more motivated because they are angry and watching their power and world slip away thanks to Orange Satan.
What matters is the environment next November. If the economy starts roaring as is predicted it will be a completely different ballgame.

Get a Cook's Report guide or alternatively the Almanac of American politics now published by Oxford Press. Use the normal vote statistic as well as turnout statistics to determine a 'swing' in the special elections. Small n problem and you would have to deal with redistricting affecting normal vote totals in a few districts so you could do a time series study.
Don't be surprised if you get two different models--one for GOP and one for Democrats though.

Other than one exception every job I’ve had, be it full time or consulting, has been through a connection. This includes my very first part time job in HS which I got because my neighbor knew the manager of the store where I worked. First summer internship in college was at a friend’s dad’s company.
Then once my career was established it was former co-workers, former managers or former clients that hooked me up.
And I did as well. It’s a 2 way street. Scratch people’s backs they’ll catch yours as well.

Watch for GOP House retirements (they are always higher than Dems because of cmte chair term limits) and in swing Senate states, haven't bothered to look at 2026 map. Figure in new district effects.
Then you apply the macro economics and it will be tricky to use pres approval for analysis as Trump polls bad like Clinton did but that is as much personal approval instead of political.
The joker in the deck are terror attacks during the holidays--lots of plots busted up recently but the terrorists only need one breakdown. And then Venezuela.

They & theirs build wealth, contacts, practical governmental knowledge, and so on. They're not going to provide a "living wage," all forms of insurance from birth- to-death, worthless (keep busy) education and so on to the masses. We are. (They and theirs will stand to the side out of the fray, like ghosts, or mouth off inexplicably like MTG.)
They all want Trump to repair some of the visible Biden damage. That's all, no deeper. And then the giveaways begin again.
BTW, my local county: (Write what you know)
"According to the Court Financial Services department, the total amount of unpaid criminal fines in Delaware County from January 1, 2022 to January 1, 2024 was $20,598,484.36."

Delco residents prepare for a 19% property tax hike - the second double-digit increase they face in two years. (The 2025 Budget increased taxes by 23%.)
We have 50501 rallies; a potential for an HRC Ordinance that allows a panel to decide fines, punishment; a prison crisis (now operated by the county vs GEO); outrageous county legal expenses; a huge, unneeded Health Department, The Family Village, etc.

Not all degrees work the same, nor are all industries the same. Finance/accounting and the big 5/big Wall Street works by hiring all the brightest college kids, working them like dogs, and having 90% self-select and quit within 4 years.
That's not how other fields work. Piper is right. Fen's son needs to get a job and then while working that job (no matter what it is), work back towards his more ideal job. My graduate this year took a PT job that got her licensed, and parlayed that into a FT job after 2 months on the PT job (and then quit that). For a new college grad, it's WAY easier to get a job if you have a job (I mean, my kid needed 4 professional references for her FT job (and they all got contacted)- where would she have gotten them without her PT job, b/c she only had 2 jobs in college b/c they were multi-year, so only 2 there)...

Modern GOP, like Tories, is simply not a governing party. They are basically when in power, negotiators with the Dems for a scrap of pizza crust.
Trump bewildered them in his first term because he actually meant to govern and govern well. GOP toads like McConnell, Ryan, and McCain were confused as they assumed the role of the GOP was to be a doormat to the Democrats but collect some swell grifting in consequence.
In his second term, they are grimly trying to wait him out. Same thing going on with the Eurotrash, the supposedly conservative parties are trying to wait out the popular parties and back stab them on a regular basis for muh EU, muh WEF, and muh Ukraine. Vile and evil in general (lawful evil) but cowards. Leftists are batshit crazy evil (chaotic evil).
If the Democrats were not chaotic evil and Communist and that we likely would have the last free and fair election if they win control: then I wouldn't piss on an average GOP critter in office if they were on fire.

We have 50501 rallies; a potential for an HRC Ordinance that allows a panel to decide fines, punishment; a prison crisis (now operated by the county vs GEO); outrageous county legal expenses; a huge, unneeded Health Department, The Family Village, etc.

Miami is also being taken over by Muslims and Saudi Arabia.
A Foreign Islamic Government Just Opened an Investment Command Center in Miami – And No One Asked the People of Florida
In February, Miami Mayor Francis Suarez proudly announced something no one in Florida voted for:
“The Saudi Investment Promotion Authority is opening its first-ever Invest Saudi office right here in Miami.”
He said this on stage at the FII Priority Summit — the Saudi state-backed investment conference often called “Davos in the Desert.”
This year, it was held on American soil - in Miami - with Donald Trump and major global power brokers applauding.
And in the middle of the ceremony, something unprecedented happened:
Saudi Arabia officially planted its first sovereign investment office in Florida – and only its second in the United States.

BLM Grifter Indicted for, Get This, BLM Grifting
Criminals gonna crime.
A federal grand jury in Oklahoma City has delivered sweeping charges against a longtime Black Lives Matter figure, accusing her of siphoning donor money into a personal slush fund that allegedly financed Caribbean vacations, luxury shopping, and a string of real-estate purchases. According to reporting from Breitbart News, prosecutors say the case exposes how parts of the BLM movement operated far from the charitable mission donors were led to believe they were supporting. Federal prosecutors announced Thursday that 52-year-old Tashella Sheri Amore Dickerson -- the executive director of Black Lives Matter Oklahoma City since 2016 -- now faces 25 felony counts, including twenty charges of wire fraud and five more of money laundering. U.S. Attorney Robert J. Troester confirmed the indictment, which carries maximum penalties adding up to 450 years in prison and millions in fines. Senior Justice Department officials, speaking exclusively to Breitbart, framed the case as a test of their commitment to rooting out corruption inside organizations that have raised enormous sums under the banner of racial justice. Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said the prosecution shows "how some in the group's leadership allegedly used donor money to bankroll their own lifestyles," adding that the department has "zero tolerance for any kind of fraud perpetrated against the American people." FBI Director Kash Patel echoed that message, telling Breitbart his agents are "following the money" wherever it leads.In totally, completely, 100% unrelated news: "Tax the Rich" Socialist Socialite Alexandria Donkey-Chompers dropped $50,000 of donor money on luxury hotels and restaurants during her "vacations" from her "job." All over a three month period!
... Between June 2020 and October 2025, she allegedly deposited more than $2.35 million in returned bail checks directly into her own accounts. The DOJ says that money then financed: Trips to Jamaica and the Dominican Republic for Dickerson and associates
"Tens of thousands" in retail shopping
Over $50,000 in food and grocery deliveries
A personal vehicle
Six Oklahoma City properties, purchased either in her name or through an entity she controlled Prosecutors also accuse Dickerson of filing falsified annual reports with AFGJ that concealed the personal spending and claimed all funds were used for permissible charitable purposes. ... If convicted on all counts, Dickerson could face one of the most severe fraud-related sentences in recent memory -- a dramatic fall for a figure who helped lead one of the state's most visible activist organizations during the peak of the Black Lives Matter movement.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) dropped almost $50,000 on hotels and meals in Puerto Rico in the third quarter of this year -- as well as renting a San Juan venue where she was caught on tape grooving at an August Bad Bunny concert. AOC's principal campaign committee shelled out $680.52 on July 28 to stay at the lavish Hotel Palacio Provincial, along with another $1,507.26 on Aug. 29 and a whopping $9,440,79 on Sept. 29, according to third quarter federal campaign finance filings -- even as the "Squad" rep on her social media accounts denounced gentrification that was taking place on the island. The "first-class," "adults only" Palacio Provincial boasts of being "situated within an historic early 19th century building" with "transcendent hints of the structure's grand colonial past." On Aug. 25, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for Congress also paid $3,861.20 to Hotel El Convento, another 19th century property touting its "old world charm and elegance," the Federal Election Commission filings show.
In all, the campaign forked over $15,489.77 for lodging in Puerto Rico between July 1 and Sept. 30. At least $10,743.13 was spent on meals and catering services on Aug. 25 and Sept. 29, per the FEC filings for that period. ... Ocasio-Cortez's campaign spent more than $23,000 on "venue rental" at the same location, the Coliseo De Puerto Rico, on June 24 and Aug. 25. It's unclear whether the expenses were related to the Bad Bunny shows. ... Fox News first reported on the filings, and a campaign manager for the congresswoman, Oliver Hidalgo-Wohlleben, responded in a statement to the outlet that Ocasio-Cortez "regularly travels to Puerto Rico to support local causes and host events that require both staff and security." "She is deeply proud of her investment in grassroots organizing and will continue to be active in advocating for both people on the island and the millions of Puerto Ricans in the diaspora," Hidalgo-Wohlleben added.
Throughout the third quarter, the Ocasio-Cortez campaign spent thousands of dollars more on various "boutique" hotel stays and expensive food vendors on the US mainland -- including as part of her "Fighting Oligarchy" tour with socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.). Those outlays included $6,600 for stays at the Hotel Vermont in Burlington. Ocasio-Cortez's campaign coffers also were used for $2,000 lodging at the Thompson Central Park Hotel in Manhattan -- and a $3,000 stay at the Arlo Williamsburg in Brooklyn.
Other expenses included $6,300 for a meal at Italian restaurant Ama in the capitol's Navy Yard neighborhood. Another $11,500 was shelled out for dining in DC, Vermont, the Bronx and Latham, NY, ice cream company Mr. Ding-a-ling.

I mentioned it yesterday: Youtuber Shawn Ryan is in feud the one-eyed TX Representative.
It all started when Shawn Ryan criticized Crenshaw for extravagant spending, namely hiring some ridiculously high-priced DJ.
Crenshaw made the Big Mistake of hiring a lawyer to send a STFU letter to Ryan. Now a small feud is a national story.

Can't seem to find it, but after the "guy who shot Bin Laden" disgraced himself with his tawdry publicity efforts, the commander and command master chief of Nav Special Warfare released an open letter to the force. It was a very well crafted 10-megaton smackdown on how publicity was the opposite of wise practices and tradition.
Good friend from jr. high days did 25+ years in the teams, talk with him all the time, you'll never know his background unless you ask or someone tells you. He still hasn't shared almost anything specific about what he did. Young current SEALs at the range always have to be asked if they're on the teams, in my experience, and they're sheepish when answering - but there are clues and I've always been right when I asked.

Every university in the nation is lefty. It doesn't mean the population is. OKC has a conservative mayor and definitely helped getting a conservative governor and legislature elected. The only reason Lankford won a senate seat is that he ran as a hardcore conservative. Doubt he'll be re-elected.

Asshole probably was told like MTG that they had no chance to win statewide. That means all that is left for Crenshaw as he has his generational wealth is a long time sniffing backsides of House leadership.

Then Crenshaw really is a cretin, because if he wants the power and position as much as he wanted that insignia he needs to put in the time, effort and planning.

While that may be true, strangely enough the earthquakes in Oklahoma stopped shortly after cracking down on certain fracking practices. The quakes were a thing...and then one day they weren't, just like an on and off switch.

Mid life crisis when you are stuck climbing the greasy pole of power in politics. Crenshaw always struck me, even way back at the start of his career, as a person on the make. His nasty responses to any critics, now recently highlighted have probably put paid on rising further either in House leadership or for higher office.

I don't think those quakes were caused by fracking. More likely deep-well injection of wastewater at very high pressure, which may have lubricated stuck faults and allowed them to move. Actual fracking is done usually at lesser depths (depends upon depth of the target formation, of course), and it deliberately causes thousands of tiny "earthquakes" that can only be detected by sensitive seismometers, which can be used to track the progress of the frac job. Once the frac job is complete, there should be no further "quakes".

According to my mother, there was one in Tulsa when I was very small. We were in our apartment -- I was less than a year old -- and Mom got out of bed for something, carrying me, and the quake hit and the ceiling collapsed right onto the bed. Would have killed me if I'd still been in the bed.

Depends if the old camp for children scandal involving Lankford as manager comes to light again. You can do a pretty good hit ad with what Lankford said in depositions regarding the lawsuit over children being molested at that camp. And then follow with his vacant idiotic remarks on the last big bipartisan push for amnesty under Biden as McConnell's meat puppet.

Tyler Robinson Smirks and Swaggers in Court, Showing No Remorse for Murdering Charlie Kirk
It's almost as if he likes his chances at trial.
Tyler Robinson, accused in Charlie Kirk killing, smirks and chuckles during first in-person court appearance, with family in tow ... Thursday's hearing was the first time Robinson was physically present and seen in court. Prior hearings were virtual. Robinson looked unfazed by the grim charges he faces -- which accused him of brutally shooting the 31-year-old Kirk on Sept. 10 during a Turning Point USA talk at Utah Valley University in front of a crowd of thousands.Why is this man smiling? Because he knows he won't be convicted. He has leftist supporters who want to reward him for murdering Charlie Kirk, and he has members of the pseudoright -- Candace Owens acolytes -- who think he was framed by the Deep State to cover up Erika Kirk's murder of her husband. So get ready for the acquittal. It's coming, and Tyler Robinson knows it. And don't think "At least the acquittal will finally convince Candace Owens to stop with her insane grifting practices." No, it won't. She's smile, she'll laugh, and she'll say, "You see, I was right! The acquittal proves it was Israel and Egyptian Planes who killed Charlie Kirk!"
🚨: JUST IN: Charlie Kirk’s assassin Tyler Robinson strolls into court SMIRKING like a man who didn’t just destroy a family, steal a father from precious children, and attack an entire movement.
— Brandon Tatum (@TheOfficerTatum) December 11, 2025
First time seeing him in person… and he’s proud of it.
No remorse. No humanity.… pic.twitter.com/GhFxPYkhuX
The cruelty that has been heaped on Charlie Kirk's widow, Erika, since his assassination three months ago has been unrelenting. First it was leftist ghouls cheering on his cold-blooded murder, in front of a crowd of 3,000 people at the first stop of his Turning Point USA "American Comeback Tour" outdoors on the campus of Utah Valley University on Sept. 10. The ghouls gloried in the death of the young father of two, mimicked the instant the bullet hit his throat, created T-shirts with his image and gushes of blood to celebrate the moment his voice was silenced. ... But what has been far worse than the leftist haters are right-wing-adjacent grifters and nuts pushing wicked conspiracy theories about Charlie's murder, pointing the finger at his colleagues, friends and even Erika herself. These fantasies have been peddled primarily by former prominent TPUSA luminary Candace Owens on her hit podcast, which gets more than 40 million views for her wildest rants. She has claimed Israeli Mossad agents, men in maroon shirts, the US military, Egyptian planes, Jewish donors and the French government are somehow complicit.She also claimed some kind of Mormon cult centered around... bee worship might have had a hand in it.
See, if there's no exit wound, that means that one of Charlie Kirk's own staffers must have shot him from the stage using a lower-powered pistol bullet.
She endlessly plays videos of that awful day and theorizes about the "exit wound" or lack thereof.
Just asking questions? Worst of all, she torments Charlie's widow by suggesting in a disingenuous "just asking questions" way that Charlie was "betrayed" by the people who loved him most.Do you know this next part? Her "proof" that Charlie Kirk was "betrayed" by those closest to him is... a dream. She claims that Charlie Kirk cane to her in a dream and told her to smear her friends and wife as conspiracists in his murder.
Her proof? A dream. "I had a very vivid dream whereupon Charlie told me that he had been betrayed." She has thrown suspicion on Charlie's pastor, his chief of staff, his chief operating officer, his spokesman, the camera guy, you name it.Finally, Erika Kirk broke her self-imposed silence -- trying to let Candace Owens' hatred, jealousy, and narcissism just burn itself out naturally, only to realize it would never burn out because the money is too good -- to tell Owens to stop. She didn't name Owens, but it's clear who she's talking about. (Owens herself says it's clear that Erika is calling Owens out.)
She plays clips of their reactions the moment Charlie was shot and claims they looked guilty. She is suspicious that TPUSA supposedly won't give her their footage of Charlie's murder that she laughably claims she needs so she can "debunk all these internet conspiracies." "Everything about this is wrong," she said. "I helped to build that organization, so I am almost the perfect person to discern what is normal and what is abnormal." She also claims: "I've chosen to be on the side of goodness and truth no matter what the cost is." Her daily tantalizing drip feed of absurdities cashing in on her former friend's death has made her millions of dollars.
Remember, she patiently allowed Candace Owens to defame her for months to let her burn it out of her, and now that silence is taken as an admission she was in on it.
Finally, on Wednesday, Erika Kirk erupted in a controlled demolition of Owens and all who amplify her toxicity. "This is righteous anger, because this is not OK. It's not healthy. This is a mind virus," she told Harris Faulkner on Fox News' "Outnumbered" program in an appearance to promote the publication of her husband's final book, "Stop, in the Name of God." "I want justice for my husband, for myself, for my family, more than anyone else out there. But here's my breaking point on that. Come after me, call me names, I don't care. "Call me what you want, go down that rabbit hole, whatever." "But when you go after ... the people that I love, and you're making hundreds and thousands of dollars, every single episode going after the people that I love [saying] because somehow they're in on this? No." With courage and graceful intensity, she explained why she so far has remained silent in the face of ever more cruel clickbait: "My silence does not mean that somehow, Turning Point USA, and all of the handpicked staff that loved my husband -- and my husband loved them -- is somehow in on it."
At one point, Erika turned to the camera and pointedly addressed the conspiracy theorists: "Just know that your words are very powerful, and we are human. My team are not machines, and they're not robots. We have more death threats on our team and our side than I have ever seen ... What are we supposed to do? Relive that trauma all over again?" The best part was that Erika never mentioned the name of the woman who TPUSA insiders say is afflicted by "first wife" syndrome. They say Owens is consumed by jealousy that Erika has been appointed CEO of TPUSA, following Charlie's express wishes to the board and colleagues and captured on video. "She is a woman scorned," one TPUSA insider said of Owens. "She was iced out of TPUSA ... She was not close to Charlie -- he kept her at arm's length. He knew the best tack on her was to keep her on ice ... She was not invited to Charlie's wedding."
Owens has repeatedly claimed she wants to meet with TPUSA staffers to get to the "truth" and claimed she would go anywhere and debate anyone to prove her dream of Charlie Kirk is accurate. TPUSA agreed to a public debate -- and then Owens made excuses and said that date wouldn't work for her. And nor would any other date.
You might think that Erika Kirk telling her to stop might make her stop. Why would you think that? Well, because Candace Owens said she would stop if and when Erika Kirk told her to stop. You see, for months, when people told Candace Owens that it was rotten to smear a widow as culpable in her husband's murder, she claimed that only two people could make her stop spinning her conspiracy theories about Erika Kirk -- her husband (or "husband," as other conspiracy theories posit), or Erika Kirk herself. So... because Candace Owens is truthful and honorable and not motivated by insane levels of narcissism, entitlement, and belief that Erika Kirk should have put Candace Owens in charge of Charlie Kirk's organization, she immediately honored her promise and agreed to no longer spread conspiracy theories about Erika Kirk being an accomplice in her husband's murder. Just kidding!
... At first, Charlie's family and colleagues decided to ignore the bile. But last week, his inner team, who have been running his podcast since he died, finally invited Owens to come on the show and clear the air. They have spent all week negotiating with her but say she keeps making excuses for why she can't go to their studio in Phoenix, including that there is a local "cartel" that wants to assassinate her. She has also claimed that French President Emmanuel Macron -- who is suing her for defamation over her prolonged claims that his wife, Brigitte, is really a man -- has ordered her assassination. Of course, she claims there's an Israeli in the assassin squad.
Erika Kirk did not say “please stop lying” in this clip. She said “please STOP” as in, shut the fuck up Candace. You’re literally beating on a widow because you can’t fucking STOP.

Often-incoherent podcaster Candace Owens fired back at Erika Kirk as the widow finally addressed the conspiracy theories surrounding Charlie Kirk's death and Turning Point USA, claiming the widow "missed the mark" and accused her of using "the exact same emotional strategy deployed by BLM." "It is a positively ABSURD notion that you cannot critique a 150 million dollar organization because the CEO says they are like a family, and are grieving," Owens railed on X. "It is the exact same emotional strategy deployed by BLM in the wake of George Floyd's death, when I called out their shady financial dealings." Erika Kirk has been publicly pushing back for the first time on rampant conspiracy theories flying around the internet by conservative activists about her husband's assassination -- among them Owens, a once close friend of Charlie's. ... She's repeatedly gone after Erika, who was named CEO of Turning Point USA -- the massive conservative activist organization founded by Charlie. Owens later attacked Erika on her podcast for not addressing the rumors publicly as the new CEO of the company, but as a mourning widow. "It completely missed the mark for me. I am sorry. It just has. But the good news is that she is now un-murking the water in terms of her intentions with this massive political organization," Owens said on her podcast after Kirk's TV appearance.What she means is that Erika Kirk, by telling Owens to stop defaming her, has confirmed that TPUSA was in on the murder plot all along. This is why I have been so vitriolic about conspiracy theorists and their maniacal belief that anyone pushing back against the conspiracy theory is just further proof of the conspiracy theory being right. Every time I've railed against conspiracy theorists lately, I have been thinking of this ugly Low-IQ grifter whore. I guess i should have said so. When confronted by one of her own lunatic supporters about her promise to "stop" if Erika asked her to, Candace Owens, get this, prevaricates. She claims that Erika didn't tell her to stop, but to stop lying, and because she's not lying (she claims), she'll keep on doing what she does. Except she lied right there, didn't she? Not only is Candace Owens refusing to "stop" as she promised she would do if asked, but she's doubling down and attacking Erika Kirk more, accusing her of showing "no passion" in talking about the murder of her husband -- wink, wink -- and giving "ChatGPT answers" when accused of murder. Another of Candace Owens' conspiracy theories is that Erika Kirk is hiding his body by not publicizing the location of his grave. Which she assumes would be immediately vandalized and desecreated by the left, forever. But no, this is further proof she is hiding the body to cover up her own involvement in his murder. She says she is building a beautiful memorial for Charlie Kirk, which will be public. But she seems to, understandably I think, want to keep the location of his actual grave private. Erika Kirk says she is in fact scared that the jury has been "tainted" by both left-wing support of left-wing killers and conspiracy theorists claiming that she is the Real Killer of her husband. Erika Kirk and TPUSA haven't sued Candace Owens for defamation and intentional infliction of extreme emotional distress... yet. Owens should remember that when Alex Jones accused parents of children killed in a school shooting of pretending their kids had been killed, a jury absolutely destroyed him with a multi-billion dollar judgment. That is way too much, but Owens should keep in mind that when you accuse people who are the victims of a tragedy of being complicit in that tragedy, a jury can decide that your lies are worth billions of dollars.
Remember, Candace Owens is just "anti-Zionist" not anti-Jew you guys.
Allie Beth Stuckey
@conservmillen Candace commented on my Instagram post saying I only disagree with her baselessly implicating Charlie's friends in his murder because my great-grandfather whom I never met was Jewish. Okay. Also, apparently, she was Charlie's only true friend. I have been extremely, explicitly clear that Charlie and I had a strong friendship that was completely professional. I'm grateful to be one of many that he shared stages and wisdom with over the years. Charlie's inner circle -- his friends, his coworkers, his WIFE -- are the only ones who loved and knew him best and they are the ones we can trust to seek true justice on their behalf.
This woman had a great grandfather she never met who was Jewish so Candace Owens -- not antisemitic, mind you, just "anti-Zionist" -- accuses her of being "tribal." Tucker Carlson decided to weigh in on the Jews Killed Charlie Kirk Conspiracy Theory, of course. The grifting potential is just too tempting. He does his usual cowardly signalling that he likes the conspiracy theory without having the guts to sign his name to it. He says he supports Candace Owens in her search for "truth," and says that she is acting in good faith when she accuses Erika Kirk of arranging her husband's murder. Then he says he does not trust the FBI, thereby discarding the evidence against Tyler Robinson.
Tucker here doesn’t mention anything about the fact that Tyler Robinson was seen at the crime scene, left his DNA on the towel covering the rifle and the trigger, CONFESSED to the murder and outlined his motive to his trans lover, and was IDENTIFIED BY HIS OWN FAMILY.

I used to say "No, Tucker isn't just doing this for the money, he's a Nepo Baby and heiress (yes, I said heiress) to the Swanson frozen food fortune. He doesn't need the money." Now I'm not so sure. It can't be a coincidence that Tucker Carlson always goes where the clicks are. And it can't be a coincidence that the guests he keeps having on to spread propaganda just happen to be paid foreign agents.
Tucker's anti-Christian and pro-Islamist positions are becoming more and more apparent. https://t.co/lJhBDDo3p1

Gotta say, the idea that we have secret bee worship section is a new one.
Certainly the bee is one of the many symbols we use, but worship it? Um, no. And the bee symbol itself is mostly tied to Utah and pioneer history; as the Church goes worldwide the bee is fading as far as any sort of relevance goes.
That said, the word "Deseret" is translated as honeybee, so if you see Deseret, it is associated with the bee.

I don't think so. She claimed she had been doxxed or defamed or something (irony!) so she wanted to create a site called "Social Autopsy" where poeple could dox the doxxers. Two left-wing women -- one of them, IIRC, the left-wing gamergate whore Zoe Quinn -- told her that was a terrible idea, because if you create a site where people can post unvetted defamatory material about internet "harassers," of course the harassers will just use the site to dox more victims.
That was 100% right. But Owens is a low-IQ narcissist who thinks that every stupid idea she has is brilliant, so she began spiraling out claiming these left-wing women were trying to trick her into abandoning her brilliant idea.
She was a left-winger then. She says she became "right wing" because these left-wing women tried to "trick" here.
She has never been right wing. She has always been a left-wing narcissist looking for attention and fame.

As such, the word Deseret entered the greater Utah cultural area... and the original name for the territory that wanted to become a state was the territory of Deseret. Congress changed it to "Utah." And chopped down the boundaries. The beehive was the state symbol back then and still is now. The "University of Deseret" became the University of Utah, but the Deseret News is still one of the two leading newspapers in the state.

- leftists shouldn't be assassinating their opponents.
- leftists shouldn't be targeting their opponents for assassination
- leftists shouldn't be cheering the assassination of their opponents
- leftist's opponents should be free to engage in whatever debate they wish whenever and without fear of violence
But, instead, we will be glad that as we are all hunted down, one by one, and the entirety of the media cheer on their dogs, there is at least a chance a leftist somewhere will be prosecuted for it.

i keep making the "dry drunk" point. I learned about that from Dan Riehl. I think it refers to an alcoholic who stopped drinking but who still has the quick temper his brain learned to have from being pickled for years at a time. Someone else told me it's when an alcoholic gives up the sauce but never addresses the problems that led to the alcoholism in the first place.
Remember when Andrew Sullivan went from being sexually rapt by George W. Bush to despising him? There is a type of political junkie for whom the only thing that matters is believing in some quasi-religious political ideology with a zealot's fury. It doesn't matter what is believed, just that the Believer Believes. Thus, Andrew Sullivan can go from writing "Mash Notes to Bush" on Monday to denouncing him as Satan by Saturday.
Same with Tucker Qatarlson, as Mark Levin calls him.

Vincent Di Maio was America's leading gunshot pathologist and wrote the literal book on gunshot wounds used a key legal treatise on the matter. Mas and Jim Cirrillo (now deceased for about ten years) were good friends with Vincent.
Basically, high powered bullets depending on construction can do all sorts of seemingly weird twists and turns when they hit obstructions. The old Mark VII bullet from the Brits in 303 was a battlefield killer beyond its modest ballistics as is the 5.56 55 gr fmj. That is because when they hit any solid obstruction, bone, metal, even drywall in the case of 5.56, they become tumbling ass over teakettle aka keyholing--can happen internally shredding a body or by making truly large exit wounds. All depends on angle, force remaining in the bullet, force expended by entry, obstacles, etc. and meeting the requirement for enough ft pds to exit the human skin.
That is just for full metal jackets. Hunting bullets are often specifically designed to stay in teh body but cause immediate death because in and out means a long chase of a wounded animal. Considered inhumane.

Yes. At some point, the emoting needs to stop. You can be the grieving widow but not the CEO of a major organization at the same time. And calling for critics or Owens to "stop" was never going to work in Owens case nor pass muster in a free speech society. It only feeds the beast. In my view, she needs to assemble her team and calmly, impersonally, rationally expose Owens' lies and Owens herself (and how she reflects sicknesses in the culture). Also, to enunciate the qualities and virtues of her husband and by extension the value of Turning Point.

A lot of people are listening to military types discussing terminal ballistics which is an issue. FMJ required by the Hague conventions is a different critter than hunting bullets (which are forbidden btw). Second, because most of the military bullets are designed for long range potential, you don't see the destabilizing effects (other than the original M193 55g BT) of keyholing from a bullet ballistic instability caused in part by the center of gravity as well as being boat tailed. The Mark VII got its rep from "the forward third of the bullet's interior was filled with a lighter material" with a cupro nickel and otherwise lead core. That made it unstable when it hit even skin.
Continued.

(I know this because my older brother is a drunk. He spends his spare time destroying anything I do, and calling up me and my family and harassing us. He is obsessed with how inferior he is, and of course I have tried to understand what is going on.)

Along with the work of ballisticians, terminal effect experts perform tests of bullet designs on representative targets made of ballistic gelatin covered with animal hide, human clothing, etc., as needed. Bones, real or artificial, including spinal columns and skulls, will be included in or outside the ballistic gel. I do not know if animal carcasses are still used for such tests. They used to be the standard terminal effects targets.

Society moving from high trust to low trust exhibits all kinds of costs. So basically everyone is making up lists of what sources they trust and what they don't and this allows all sorts of lunacy based on pure reasoning without evidence. And thus even the lack of evidence somehow becomes transformed into positive evidence based on nothing more than feelz (and in carny influencer shill types, money behind it).
Eurotrash want MAGA split as does Uniparty, Big corporations, China, Russia, WEF, etc.
And these evil bastards are willing to pay out the ass for influencers to "just ask questions" and shill disunity on the netz whether it is Epstein, Ham Ass/Qatar, or Charlie Kirk's killing. Just as they did regarding anything where billions and trillions of bucks are on the line.

Alex Jones, like Trump in the "bank fraud" case, didn't even get a trial. The entire court proceeding was the penalty phase. The court was not trying to determine if he had done anything wrong, but to figure out how much the the thing the judge had already decided he was guilty if was going to cost him. (BTW, I think Jones is an asshole and is best left ignored, and what he said about Sandy Hook was horrendous, but he was absolutely and undeservedly railroaded in that case.)

It really has nothing to do with how Mrs. Kirk acts.
When a vengeful woman has decided you must be destroyed - as it appears Owens has decided Erika Kirk must be destroyed - she will use anything and everything against you.
Since she's not publicly breaking down in tears, the attack line is "She's in on it and not mourning at all"
If she were publicly breaking down in tears the attack line would be any thing from "She's crying from guilt" to "she's faking it for sympathy" to "She too emotionally unstable to lead TPUSA".
Literally any stick is good enough to beat the target with, for a vengeful woman.

Every hunter in the field does testing by experience as well. Live animal testing and using autopsy results from humans being shot is a pretty morbid subject involving close up pictures of damage, a knowledge of ballistics, and also of biology.
Way back in 1904, the infamous Thompson–LaGarde Tests used cattle in 1904 and some human cadavers for such testing. And we have used goats, pigs, etc. for trauma testing and training for battlefield meds for a long while.

But then he follows up with something like "and you know why? Because our entire government is run by THE JEWS!!!!" And with that he tries to get weak minded listeners to slide right along his vicious path with him.

When Abraham Lincoln's body was brought and buried in Springfield, Illinois, it was originally in a ground-level tomb. But, after threats and conspiracies to dig the body up and desecrate it, a new tomb was built (which I have been in) and his body was buried 16 feet below it and encased in a thick concrete vault to prevent that.
I wouldn't be surprised if the left was not satisfied with desecrating the grave but would actually dig up the body.

I don't think she is ill, she enjoys it as a sociopath. That sort of person is evil, not mentally ill and in particular this response to Erika comes from Candace being fired from any connection with Kirk's Turning Point movement back in 2019 and her slyly intimating about wanting to get back in a position running it after Charlie was murdered.
Encylopedia Brittanica, "Candace Owens resigned from Turning Point USA in 2019 after a controversy over comments she had made about Adolf Hitler."
She's evil and vile.

Actually went as far as doing graverobbing but the group had a Secret Service informant and a trap was laid:
"On the night of the attempt (Election Day evening 1876), law enforcement surrounded the tomb and waited.
The robbers broke in, sawed off the padlock, pried open the marble sarcophagus, and moved the wooden coffin about 15 inches before being interrupted.
An accidental gunshot from a detective’s weapon caused confusion, and the thieves fled the scene before they could fully remove the body.
They escaped out the east gate of the cemetery but were captured in Chicago ten days later."

"Heiress to Swanson Foods" made me laugh. Tucker is so worried about they gheys now it makes me wonder about him! Maybe he's moose limb since he hates Jews and Christians.I spit in his general direction.
Candace is a special brand of insanity. I can't quite put my finger on it except paranoid schizophrenia with a ton of narcissism and borderline personality disorder swimming around.
I liked her, briefly, over a decade ago. Have never listened to her podcast as I ain't got time. Going off the deep end into a shallow pool with no water is on display. "She's too busy" for a full debate, because "her husband says so." Or something bullsharte and stinky. I add coward to all the other adjectives.
I hope Kirk's family sue her to oblivion. So weird to do what she's doing for attention (narcissism).
The fact that she was not asked to their wedding or his funeral is telling, no matter how important to Charlie Kirk she tries to tell herself she was.
She's like an unpinned grenade and I would never want her near me. I hope there is a pill for this, or electroshock therapy. Also...SHAME ON YOU!

You somehow blew a free ride to a university after one semester. This shows immatuity and your general fagginess and could not fit in.Did you miss your mommy?

Candace acts like a woman scorned by the love of her life. Let's imagine for a moment that Candace has always been jealous of Erika and blames her for being ousted as part of Kirk's inner circle. Not getting an invitation to their wedding (throws temper tantrum).
Loses job (throws hissy fits & eyeballs pop). Has babies & that is not enough for her. She was rejected, her ego! She will have revenge!
Uses Kirk's death to make up fairy tales about their "friendship." Marries some guy three years before Kirk, when he started dating Erika.No invitation.
There is a reason she was not invited to their wedding in 2021. She left Turning Point in 2019. Some say due to anti-semitism, but I don't know. Was fired from Daily Wire a year ago due to anti-semitism...so that seems to be a pattern with this hysterical beetch on wheels.
For her, in 2025, to even THINK she should be part of Kirk's funeral is insane, as is she. Fairytale thinking. Morphing truth into a narrative she alone likes. Her ego boost.
She must be a ton of fun to live with. Her husband should be careful as she can turn on a dime. I'd sleep with a weapon under my pillow.

“Ultimately [Kirk] was a Christian evangelist, and it actually reminds me of my favorite story ever. So it’s about 2,000 years ago in Jerusalem, and Jesus shows up and he starts talking about the people in power, and he starts doing the worst thing that you can do, which is telling the truth about people, and they hate it, and they just go bonkers. They hate it, and they become obsessed with making him stop: ‘This guy’s got to stop talking. We’ve got to shut this guy up.’ And I can just sort of picture the scene in a lamp-lit room with a bunch of guys sitting around eating hummus, thinking about — what do we do about this guy telling the truth about us? We must make him stop talking! And there’s always one guy with a bright idea, and I can just hear him say, ‘I’ve got an idea. Why don’t we just kill him? That’ll shut him up, that’ll fix the problem.’ It doesn’t work that way. It doesn’t work that way.”

Granted, I can't stand her, but I'd have to be hog tied with toothpicks opening my eyes to watch her podcast. And gagged to keep me from lalalala or humming against her lying voice. I don't watch her at all, fearing she's somehow making a buck from me. I also think she's evil.

Gavin Newsom Admits That California Pays for Free Healthcare for Illegal Aliens
We already knew this, but Gavin Newsom admits it. As you know, in the propaganda media, no amount of evidence is ever enough to disprove a left-wing talking point. A point is only settled against a leftist if he admits it.
What is even more astounding is Regime Apologist Ezra Klein's reaction to this admission. Newsom's admission doesn't cause Klein to say, "Well, it turns out Trump wasright when he said Democrat states pay for health care for illegals." No, it causes him to re-assert that Trump "lies" about this, followed by praising Newsom for having the guts to make Trump's "lies" a reality.If it's true... how is Trump "lying," Ezra?
Trump often lies about Democrats giving healthcare to undocumented immigrants. In California, Newsom actually did it. And defends it.
— Ezra Klein (@ezraklein) December 11, 2025

The William F Buckley vs Gore Vidal debate proves that leftists have been calling the right Nazis forever. Nothing new under the sun.
Buckley was ruled by the media to have lost the debate when he called Vidal a Fag. But Vidal IMO had already sunk too low when he called Buckley a Nazi. Buckley flew into a rage, and while he should have kept his cool I totally understand it.
The best revenge for the right, is that gore Vidal has faded into utter irrelevancy. At one point it was required to have his books on your self if you were a proper lefty. But no one cares about him anymore.

Sure, if there's 25% turnout in the next election.
A reason why I aggressively dislike doomerism about elections is that it's quite correctible. Even if a local GOP is run by morons, there are quite a lot of PACs that do GOTV efforts now. We could all join or support one to make sure voters actually vote. That's the problem we've been having with these off-year special elections this year - ultra low turnout that makes the AWFLs seem like they are replicating when they are a shrinking demographic almost by definition.

But the way it works is the left truly hates Trump. Even though Trump was a bit lefty. A lefty of a few decades ago, that degree of lefty, mostly on the social liberal side. But because they hate that he now stands in their way, and hate that he is sometimes, not often, but on occasion successful in opposing them they posses an existential hatred of the man.
And like any cargo cult in that situation they have brought forward their "Trump" a person who's only feature is they know he is really truly loathsome as they loath Trump. That's it entirely

Thus, the O-care portion, surely, is being illegally spent, as that abomination of a disaster of an unconstitutional "law" expressly prohibited it.
Which just again raises the question of why Trump's HHS, whose secretary is given unbelievable dictatorial powers under that same law, never uses those powers to strangle/destroy/dismantle that enormous anchor around the country's neck. A question raised by a few in the first term, where again nothing was done.
So has the administration moved to end/block all $ to CA and other states proportional to those funds being illegally spent on illegal aliens? And is HHS gonna do anything else using its enormous discretion under the existing law?

There's another theory: Klein just co-wrote a book called "Abundance" and has developed something called "the abundance theory" (or something) in which he supposedly tackles the Democrats' eternal failure to get things done, all while making people more prosperous, not less. It seems like he's frustrated with continuing Democrat failures and he's trying to make a change in Democrat policies and the ideology itself.
He's 5% onto something, but I've seen him talk about other things and he's way too blind and stupid to make the biggest and most obvious connections.

But again, it pales in comparison, in terms of impact (#s self-deporting) to the absolutely critical move, that will yield yuuuge results: turning off the magnet of employment by enforcing the law against employers.
The low-risk, low-cost, almost invisible (in public relations terms) move, which is girls' gym compared to messy raids with idiots protesting/interfering. Fifty lawyers making 5 phone calls a day to known perp firms laying out the situation - with some demonstrative raids and executive suite arrests to set the table - and the outflow of illegals will be dramatic.

But again, it pales in comparison, in terms of impact (#s self-deporting) to the absolutely critical move, that will yield yuuuge results: turning off the magnet of employment by enforcing the law against employers.
The low-risk, low-cost, almost invisible (in public relations terms) move, which is girls' gym compared to messy raids with idiots protesting/interfering. Fifty lawyers making 5 phone calls a day to known perp firms laying out the situation - with some demonstrative raids and executive suite arrests to set the table - and the outflow of illegals will be dramatic.

Exactly the situation. And the amnesty will be lawless and "administrative", just as Biden/Obama worst of all, but also other administrations, misused discretion to create de facto amnesty (culminating in the worst case, DACA).
Still likely that enough GOP senators will remain terrified to vote for actual amnesty (41), despite being desperate to do so - assuming a few don't do a banzai charge and retire before their next primary - so lawless abuse of power will be the only option.
Border can be opened/closed like a door. Trump 2.0 just dramatically illustrated this. Reason #1,321 why removals of illegals is an urgent matter, and the administration should play like they're 20 points behind. They are, mostly - but not in the most important area, employment.
Posted by: rhomboid at December 12, 2025 01:00 PM (U/Byj)
So has the administration moved to end/block all $ to CA and other states proportional to those funds being illegally spent on illegal aliens? And is HHS gonna do anything else using its enormous discretion under the existing law?
Posted by: rhomboid
=====
They are but DC courts. Plus, all blue states are having to be sued to get basic information on voting lists, Medicaid recipients, and so on.
Cutting off funds implicates the APA and other laws so all of that takes time including overcoming adverse lower court decisions even if the law is black letter. See Planned Parenthood cutoff ruling from a Boston district court judge despite BBB specifically cutting those funds off.
Basically legal mumbo jumbo ruling, "it ain't fair to single out PP by cutting off their funds." See Liberty interest of the 14th Amendment as quasi justification although misapplied here.

From a public safety standpoint, removing criminals and terrorists should come first. Every American killed by an illegal criminal is one needless death.
Second, Trump is trying to keep the economy going at the same time other disruptive moves are being made---tariffs shifting countries of production, supply chains for critical goods like food and pharma, probably some quid pro quo involving Latin countries that play ball on Venezuela (foreign and domestic issue), etc.
Trump and his team are masters at economic policy even in his first term, and he is in a rush which is why all the GOPe, Dems, and black robed tyrants are out to disrupt, delay, and deny his ability to roll back the tide.

There are certain sectors to start with, and ways to do it, that minimize disruption - in fact both common sense and previous examples show there is a net economic benefit, and pretty quickly, to American citizens involved.
And this approach has been laid out and known since the first term. No administration can control the future or the idiocies the American people will tolerate or even embrace. But the choice between speed bump and change of direction is entirely up to the administration.

Obamacare was just
- Identify something we can sell as a vital bill to pass
- Lard it full of all our grift.
- Name it something clever
- Pass bill.
Like "Inflation Reduction Act", the "Affordable Care Act" was just a name and nothing in the bill had to do with that. It was all about locking the industry into their socialist plans.
It was a negotiation between the Medical Industrial Complex and the Democrat Party over how they were going to divvy up the loot.
And what bothered the Republicans is that they were not getting any.

That is a Crossing the Rubicon situation and you have to consider then what will be done in a future Democrat administration.
The problem, I think, is that our ruling elite now simply are done with popular democracy and taking them on is about on par with Caesar facing the decaying Roman Republic's Senate diktats.
It is actually far easier to replace an individual tyrant than a system of tyranny unless you want to go Sulla on them. Proscriptions are required and taking their generational wealth away from them.
Then any such ruler will never be able to sleep without one eye open.
Cromwell had it easier. He only had the Royalists to fight. The Roman Civil War after Caesar died was much more prolonged and arguably act 1 happened when Sulla and his co ruler duked it out.

The “Affordability Crisis” - Home Prices and Apartment Rents Are Decreasing as Deportations Increase
The Department of Homeland Security announced on Wednesday that an estimated 2.5 million illegal aliens have left the country since the start of President Donald Trump’s second term.Over 600,000 aliens have been deported and another 1.9 million have self-deported. Those 2.5 million people were occupying a lot of housing that is now competing for new tenants. The “affordability crisis” is a term being thrown around by those who want to sabotage the Trump presidency and help Democrats defeat Republicans in the mid-terms next November. But by causing millions of illegal aliens to depart the country, the Trump administration is actually taking powerful action to reduce the cost of housing and shelter. Coincidentally, most of the NeverTrump critics trying to kneecap the Trump agenda with the “affordability” issue are hell-bent on stopping deportations and throwing the border back open to illegal labor. Those people parroting the “affordability crisis” talking points need to be challenged to admit that Donald Trump’s deportations and closed border are bringing down the cost of housing. Reducing the cost of housing is the highest priority when talking about “affordability,” and President Trump’s policies are making it happen. [buck.throckmorton at protonmail dot com]

From Buck's cite:
the number of illegal immigrants who have self-deported is just an estimation as a vast majority of migrants leaving without informing the government. At President Donald Trump’s six-month mark in office, the Department of Homeland Security reported 150,000 deportations with a combined total of 1.6 million illegal immigrants having left the country. However, DHS only recorded roughly 13,000 migrants who have self-deported. These self-deportations were tracked by the CBP Home App created by the Department, which gave illegal immigrants a free flight and a $1,000 bonus for leaving the country.

But when you're talking about say 1-2% decrease in rent, I think more needs to be done on this front.
I keep saying that conservatives need to be more "populist" when it comes to Wall Street's newfound love of single family housing and owning rental properties. Also, wrangle in the short term rentals. So many starter houses have been gobbled up by investors. Make this a less appealing investment and watch a huge amount of inventory become available.

From a purely optics standpoint, Trump vigorously raising tariffs early in his term was not good timing.
The biggest reason Trump got elected was because of the cost of living under Biden.
The tariffs are not responsible for why things are still expensive, but even among friends/family I have that voted Trump, they blame a lot of the new reality of high prices on "tariffs".

Higher inflation rates mean higher loan rates mean fewer buyers.

These are not totally "new" apartments, as older apartment buildings were knocked down to build these, but they are bigger (more rooms) and almost certainly more high-end.

It was a calculated risk; the fastest way to get employment moving up and costs moving down was to rapidly repair the massive trade imbalances between the US and the rest of the world, and shaking everyone up with the tarriffs was by far the fastest way to do that.
But it risked the bad optics, as you say. So whether it pays off or not depends on whether the economy begins to noticably improve. I actually think the chances are very good.

What does "historically low" mean? Prices are not even back to the low national averages that existed during the Obama Administration and Trump 45 Administration years.
Over 600,000 aliens have been deported and another 1.9 million have self-deported. Those 2.5 million people were occupying a lot of housing that is now competing for new tenants.
That's a great start. But considering there were about 40-50 million illegal aliens in the country -- with I think 10 million brought in under the Biden/Obama Administration from January 2021 to January 2025 -- 2.5 million is only 5% of the total and 25% of what came in under Biden/Obama.
At this rate, we'll only be rid of the 10 million brought in under Biden by the end of President Trump's 2nd term.
Which is good, of course. But not anywhere near sufficient. 100% of illegal aliens need to be deported asap. And if Democrats take over Congress in January 2027 and a MAGA Republican does not win the Presidency in 2028...

They're going to reveal it once they've:
- passed union protections for federal workers
- extended the Obamacare subsidies
- held hearings on whether Santa Clause is a socialist threat
- passed amnesty to speedboat fishermen trying to deliver powdered "fish" to Cuba
Then, and only then, can they get around to helping American citizens.

All that free and reduced cost healthcare is paid for by someone. And that's why people that aren't on welfare have seen their costs explode.
Get rid of the free riders and costs will start to go down.
And this is the only significant way, outside of rationing (which Europe does) to bring costs down.
Yes you can lower paperwork (which the government/insurance companies don't want to do). Yes you can mandate price transparency. And some other small things.
But if you want to get prices down for health insurance/health care costs you need to remove all those illegals and reduce the number of Americans getting freebies as well

Deny big institutional investors any tax deduction for interest on single family home mortgages. In a sense, the leverage that large entities get from abnormally low borrowing rates compared with individuals means they have an advantage in offering cash money on homes versus individuals in hot markets.
The other way is have localities strictly regulate rental housing. Most of the landlords like Blackrock are shitty landlords that often buy shitty new development homes that instantly require maintenance--hvac, quality of roofing, plumbing, and other such things are often subpar, which leads in turn to insta slum. Blackrock and others were essentially relying on govt subsidies like Section 8, refugee settlement, and others to fill their insta slums and like a NYC landlord, promptly ignore maintenance to goose their profit.
They enshittify areas pretty quickly while doing the legal bribery and canoodling with developers and local pols. Often affordable housing subsidies as well.

Yes. But in part because they relied on a raft of government subsidies and low cost capital to house new illegals, refugees, and Section 8 and getting breaks on zoning, etc. via affordable housing mandates.

I liked Helen hunt's storyline. The harried single mom, the gay guy getting beat up, the OCD... There was a realness to the characters' lives that gets sanded off in the fluffy Romantic comedies with the teenyboppers in them. And none of them were woke or perfect. Just people.

Well Schiff would be more like Saruman in that scenario. But I think the Donald is aware of the issue but is relying on delegation to Bessent right now instead of speaking about it publicly.
Remittances interact with Donald's foreign policy/tariff initiatives with Latin America, India, among other strategic places. JJ had a link to a story about the whole drug trade emanating from Venezuela and likely destabilizing the West Coast of Africa nations like Benin, etc. fueling Muzzie terrorism in Nigeria against Christians, etc.
Venezuela has apparently become a nexus for all sorts of bad cartels and foreign players like Russia, China, and Iran to colonize in the US backyard. Also apparently Venezuelans were still involved in the Smartmatic voting machines which licensed the technology to Dominion which is coming out. Smartmatic (or whatever they call themselves now) managers ares facing prison for bribes in the Philippine Islands regarding elections there as well.

His proposed millionaire's surtax is only 2% too. When you're rich enough to be clearing over 1mil annually, a little 2% ain't gonna be enough to offset the benefit of being located in NYC.
We did the same thing in MA with a 5% surtax and surprise, the rich are still here and we funded universal school lunch and a few other things with it.

The problem with inflation is that it sets a "New Zero".
So, in theory, things will never go back to the before Biden times.
Three things helping Trump though:
1) A lot of the inflation was caused by trying top destroy the USA's cheap energy and energy production,
Lower energy costs help everything go lower.
2) Massive deportation. A lot of Biden Handlers(?) plan was to drive inflation by immigration. That's being handled though I wish more aggressively.
3) Since Clinton the Democrats have been talking about "solving the debt" through inflation. Because, then we are paying our debts with worthless money. Ha ha ha! The Chinese are getting worthless dollars! Ha ha ha! What about US citizens? Fuck'em! HA HA HA!.
That idea's no longer being used.

The rhizomes are nearly impossible to eradicate once they spread. You have to dig deep trenches around them and and put in heavy plastic as a barrier so they don't spread.

Inflation is NOT the phenomenon of prices rising.
It's the phenomenon of debasement of the currency. When the Treasury floods trillions of dollars into the marketplace, each dollar become worth less. Thereby requiring more dollars to purchase goods.
The only was prices come down is if SUPPLY of the products increases.
Blaming higher prices on 'inflation" is like blaming your car engine for stopping when in fact you've run out of gas.

If employers are sent to jail for employing illegals (and judges don't just dismiss the cases out of spite), we'll see more self-deportations.

I hate to be the guy to point this out, but a high trust society is not a “luxury” or one of those “nice things to have”. As a society this is no longer discussd.
It isn’t a luxury it is a base prerequisite to achieving and maintaining civilization. It is not possible otherwise. No chance. Get that in your head.

we will check out the boys school if the guys feel like going back there, which they usually do. the two schools are connected but the boys school was eons better than the girls'.. but that's a whole other story

It seemed to me nearly every home (early 20th century shotguns and bungaloes) where I stayed was either a short term rental or an occupied but "deferred maintenance" dwelling.
When I was ready to start a family 30 years ago, the concept of a "starter home" was something we all talked about. You could get into a good neighborhood with small homes, have your babies, and then move into something nicer when you started making real money in your late 30s.
I'm not sure that option is available to young adults anymore. The ones I talk to do not want to start families while living in a rental.
But the newly built 3BRs are expensive and crappy and remotely located. The older ones close to town are run down or else converted to short term rentals.
I actually got to meet Sec. Scott Turner last spring, who told me HUD was working on low cost home ownership for first time buyers. But it seems like a 10-20 year project and not a 5 year project.

I think it did well on streaming reruns because it's a classic drama, not fancy but solid, and all the newer shows are dreck. It's weird to realize we lost a lot of basic competent storytellers, between the woke and the DEI and the strikes and the covid. The modern woke stuff makes suits look like it's high art.
Markle was trying to act like she was the reason it's done well in streaming. But she's such a minor character that's laughable. She can act a little though; I actually found her character likable, whereas everything about her actual persona is repellant.

Not true. I am in a swing state and yes, students are disappearing from public school rolls, traffic is lighter, rental vacancies are increasing, construction openings are increasing including shutdowns of entire developments in order to recruit new workers, ER wait times are shorter, etc. And aggregate statistics indicate that momentum is happening and the border being secured means the tap is turned off for new ones.
If you live in a blue area in a blue sanctuary state , then you won't see as much of it as blue areas in red states.
Remove the bennies, make employment uncertain, remove the criminals first, but the number are changing and it is really big but so it the US so personal observations are about as useful as figuring the weather you have is the same across the US.
Illegals distribution across the US is lumpy--they stick out in rural areas, not so much in urban and suburban and blue areas. CA,NY, and IL are epicenters of illegals that have been woven into the society of these states with their large ethnic enclaves. If you don't go to those places in your state, you won't see it whether it is waxing or waning.

Buckley was ruled by the media to have lost the debate when he called Vidal a Fag. But Vidal IMO had already sunk too low when he called Buckley a Nazi. Buckley flew into a rage, and while he should have kept his cool I totally understand it.
The best revenge for the right, is that gore Vidal has faded into utter irrelevancy. At one point it was required to have his books on your self if you were a proper lefty. But no one cares about him anymore.

That implies there was something wrong with the Birchere, and Buckley was correct in denying them legitimacy or whatever.
What was wrong with the Birchers? The only fault I could find was they did have a problem with flouridating the municipal water supplies.
Their general theme that the US “Lost China” and Korea, and the countries behind the Iron Curtain, and Yugoslavia and Cuba and Viet Nam .. etc. The State Department was riddled with communists, and set the stage for millions of deaths.
Like Sen. McCarthy, most people only know of the Birchers through the leftist or marxist media lens. “Red Scare” and “Witch Hunt” and “Hysteria” will be in there somewhere.

Because catastrophic health problems can arise that could and did bankrupt people. The problem became though, because of a weird quirk in labor pay rates being controlled circa 1940's during WWII, Kaiser Shipbuilding could recruit workers by offering freehealth care and the OPM (Office of Price and Management) ruled that this was not an increase in wages. So other corporations did it too.
Since health care was not ruled as compensation, then we got health insurance for routine care instead of catastrophic coverage. That meant eventually over time, due to size effects, insurance companies got reductions in what they paid providers versus those that paid cash. And from there, the system metastasized. Medicare boosted the effects when it came online because large insurance companies adopted Medicare coverage rules and based their charges on Medicare rates (medicare and medicaid created a price floor in essence). System still worked decently until Obama, you didn't earn that, decided to use big insurance to give coverage to those in the gaps on coverage.

CIA did not like them as they affronted modern liberal progressive attitudes so they used Buckley to take them down.
Tailgunner Joe was taken down in part for the same reason. No elite class members really wanted inquiry into their sordid personal lives and tangled finances/loyalties going back to school days. Joe, as an outsider, was disposable and removable because of his personal problems.

The surge in homebuilding will be a boon to employment overall. All the various materials that go into building will increase need and productivity there. And all the crafts, skills, and trades that go into building a home and in producing and delivering the necessary goods.
This development will resonate incrementally upward. A new neighborhood needs new stores, etc., etc. This is what Powell understands and why his hate Trump is so adamant againt lowering rates.
Lowering rates is not printing more money.
Lowering rates is creating places for money to go.

Stats say no. Part of teh issue is that the bloated numbers above the statutory cap admitted by Biden junta are good for three years and renewable for another 3.
New restrictions kicked in requiring 100k fee per job plus other restrictions such as a minimum salary of $65k starting Sept. 21, 2025.
Stats are here for the last several years. Link goes to an H1B firm. https://tinyurl.com/mk5dttah
Biden's junta spiked admissions to 188400 for FY 25 versus the 125 k total granted (this includes spouses) for FY 26. So your kids are probably seeing the Biden spike in the job market as it can take some time for the bulge in the python to be digested.

And, thing is, this could accelerate. As ICE visits more sanctuary cites. This problem is going to start solving itself very quickly. As we have fewer illegals, law enforcement can focus more and more resources on what's left. As secure border means less ICE at the border, and more to patrol and deport.
Imagine your choice - sell you shit, take you money, and leave, in an orderly manner, or get arrested and deported, and maybe losing everything you have. And not being able to find a job or get benefits. AND the feds will pay for your plane ticket. That plane ride starts looking awful good.

[Do not click to embiggen] Woman in Doorway
Samuel Halpert Is this great art? No, but it is competently executed, the artist has obvious skill, and there is no obvious political bent to the work. And the scene is sufficiently complex that it suggests questions. What is going on? Who is the woman ascending the stairs? Why didn't John Moses Browning design a .50ACP?

Is this great art? No, but it is competently executed, the artist has obvious skill, and there is no obvious political bent to the work. And the scene is sufficiently complex that it suggests questions. What is going on? Who is the woman ascending the stairs? Why didn't John Moses Browning design a .50ACP?
The two obvious unasked questions this morning:
Why didn't JMB (PBUH) jump straight to the greatest of all handgun calibers, the .41 Magnum?

I just as soon have do nothing GOP types instead annoying assholes of House Dems strutting around on TV and social media.
The main blockage to anything decent is the Senate filibuster and refusal to recess so Trump can put the rest of his people in until after the next election. That is fully in control of the GOP there.

that should earn you an instant ride back home.

IIRC, refugees come in under separate provisions of the law. You can blame GHWB for that whole mess which also turned ME blue as well.
Refugee treaties always require people to go to the adjacent safest adjacent country, not fly them across the ocean to the US.

I belatedly saw your comment a couple days ago about having had "perfect pitch" (very cool!) prior to suffering from tinnitus (I now have and hate that) owing to Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA) -- which I'd never heard of (and so sorry to hear).
Anyway, you're probably already aware -- but if not (or others are not): I have a good friend who was afflicted with awful psoriasis for a couple of years (I think he was being treated with nitric oxide or something) and his skin would continuously crust up and bleed (he spend the night once and his bed sheets were all bloody).
He stumbled onto somebody (maybe Dr. Eric Berg?) who recommended 50,000 IU of Vitamin D daily -- and it quickly cured his psoriasis!

Thanks.
My new medication Rinvoq seems to be working at least for now. Finally got off from Cosentyx which never worked for me after insurance would not let me take Humira any longer. I will mention it to my rheumatologist but due to impending spinal surgery probably can't make any changes in meds for awhile.
I take Vitamin D3 supplements anyway as I am doubly cursed to get respiratory infections--via medication and a (genetic?) deficiency in IGG4 subtype.
FWIW, Quercetin is also a proven anti inflammatory and also anti seasonal allergen for some people. Also taken with zinc, has some anti viral applications. Took it too in the past until it interacted with one of my other meds.

FWIW,
Warning, if you take steroid shots to the knee for pain, it can soften the cartilage for a time making it more likely to tear.
Also avoid K-flex, Levaquin, and other Fluoroquinolones as they can have the same effect of softening cartilege. Levaquin is now black labeled by the FDA because of it.
Botched ACL surgery with the initial tear possibly caused by Levaquin administration for sinus infection is what started me on my road to ruin.

Because of existing prescription meds, I am very careful about which supplements I take or even additional drugs which I keep to a minimum. Too many chances for interactions that simply are not even researched.
Basically, the psoriatic arthritis led to a condition of Ankylosing spondylitis which is in the process of fusing my spine. I take the Rinvoq as much to slow and stave out that as I do for the psoriatic arthritis. Before Rinvoq, I took Humira and then Cosentyx which are recommended for it.
The longer you have inflammatory arthritis, the more damage it does but you can and do go into remission at times. Over time, the inflammatory arthritis will pick and choose which other organs it will attack. In my case, the spine and inside one of my ears for whatever reason; in others, it will attack the heart, or other internal organs.

In his best films, I would agree with you. Brooks is the type that makes lemonade out of lemons in his movies which are never big on action or even much drama but are essentially snapshots into other people's lives. Even in his lesser films, his characters seem more real but flat to some because you don't get the big emotional highs or lows but instead witty urbanites muddling through.
Like Defending Your Life for example. Brooks is neither a great hero nor is he a despicable villain. He just seems average as does Meryl Streep and his trial which in other hands would seem to be dramatic, instead his character is more peevish and neurotic than dramatic. Rip Torn is the liveliest actor in that movie.

The Morning Report — 12/12/25
In the 1990s, Captain Michael Cronin, a Navy pilot who had been captured and tortured in Vietnam, began to lobby for a bill that would hold his Vietnamese torturers accountable. The ‘War Crimes Act’ was passed and Cronin died in 2020 without his torturers facing justice. The bill, originally sold as a way to hold torturers of Americans accountable, did nothing to stop abuses of American prisoners, either by Communist or Islamist foes. Its criminalization of Geneva Conviction violations was never going to matter to our enemies, instead it became a weapon used by them, and their radical allies in the United States, against our troops. Republican House and Senate majorities allowed the ‘War Crimes Act’ to sail through even though it had been loaded with the biggest poison pill of all, applying its provisions to American soldiers, and President Bill Clinton, a former anti-war protester, gleefully signed it into law. The ‘War Crimes Act of 1996’ was the fever dream wishlist of every anti-Vietnam War protester, threatening to prosecute American soldiers for international law violations, and would probably never have become law if it hadn’t been smuggled through using a Vietnam War POW as an unwitting human shield. Once the bill had been passed, it was weaponized against Americans.In a not necessarily unrelated story from a few weeks ago, Zohran Mamdani the mayor-elect of NYC announced his intention to arrest Bibi Netanyahu and hand him over to the International Criminal Court for the unspeakable crime of defending Jews from Islamic genocide. Mamdani's election is I fear not merely a one-off but given the embrace of socialism by the younger generations of voters and sadly older ones as well, and the vicissitudes of American electoral politics, sadly one day we will once again have a Democrat in the White House, will he/she/It be merely a typical liberal schmuck or a full-on Maoist like Mamdani and his ilk?! Regardless, America as founded, what remains of it and what had been restored and please God is yet to be restored by the second half of Trump 2.0 and perhaps two terms of a President Vance, will once again be ripped apart by the next incarnation of Obama on radioactive steroids. I predict that if/when (ugh!) that nightmare becomes a reality, Donald Trump, Pete Hegseth and perhaps most of the flag officer corps involved in the sinking of the Venezuelan drug boats as well as the bombing of Iran will be charged with war crimes. Given the nature of the lawsuits and shampeachments that Trump has gone through, as well as the persecution via prosecution of the J-6 protesters, you can guess the rest. And with that, will be the final nail in the coffin of the United States armed forces. It will be transmogrified into something akin to the Red Guards or Iran's IRGC.
Not to worry, we'll always have the GOP:
The Indiana State Senate rejected a plan to redraw the Hoosier State’s congressional map before the 2026 midterm elections. President Donald J. Trump and Governor Mike Braun (R-IN) pushed Republican lawmakers in the legislature to back the plan, but Republican defections scuttled the bill that would have redrawn the map on Thursday.Under the failed proposal, the congressional districts for Representatives Frank Mrvan (D-IN) and Andre Carson (D-IN) would have essentially been eliminated and replaced with two Republican-leaning seats, making the entire state’s delegation in the U.S. House of Representatives a Republican one. Currently, Republicans hold seven of the state’s nine U.S. House seats.The setback in Indiana follows a recent Supreme Court decision allowing Texas to use its newly redrawn map, which creates five additional GOP-favorable districts. Indiana had become a focal point in Trump’s nationwide effort to reshape congressional districts ahead of the 2026 midterms, a strategy aimed at maintaining the narrow Republican majority in the U.S. House of Representatives.GOP = GRIFTING OLEAGENOUS PARASITES

Apparently my liver is still intact, but I will be going home with an HAI pump. I will have to come up with a fun name for him - maybe call him "Fred". The medicine they will be putting in the pump is called FUDR - you KNOW we are going to be having fun with that acronym....
And now we get to start playing whack-a-mole with all of these pesky little tumors that didn't show up on the CT Scan or the MRI (we were told that it is not uncommon to find that once they go in).
The good news is that the pump is even MORE targeted than anything I have had before, and they can use much more medication without the worry of killing "healthy" tissue in the process.
I think the oxycodone may be kicking in now - see you guys on the other side...

Isn't it pretty to think so....
...
Not really. Trump's policy is "bring down the ayatollahs, install a stable regime of some type, profit." That's a dandy plan, on the face of it.
But America's policy in general is to prop up Iran as a counterbalance to Israel and Saudia Arabia, and keep the Middle East permanently unstable. Our government don't want anyone "winning" over there.
Trump will only be around for a few years, max. If he succeeds in toppling the ayatollahs, the IC will install some unstable gang of psychotic Muslims to replace them at the nearest opportunity and restore the status quo ante, and whoever it is will be as bad or worse than these whacko ragheads.
It's probably not even possible for Iran to have any kind of nonpsychotic government at this point, but as long as our foreign services perceive a belligerent Iran as desirable, it's definitely not.

The great fiction of course was that the Soviets were ever our “Allies”. So the Communists and saboteurs were allowed to set up shop here prior to the war, and the Nazis after the war. They were all embedded like ticks.

E-Swatini is a country in southern Africa (also known as Swaziland) completely surrounded by South Africa and Mozambique. It appears to have, approximately, zero inches of coastal territory, making it an odd choice for a merchant fleet.

If anybody remembers Breitbart's final days, he seemed to have chosen a much more brutal and confrontational style. In one street scene in Los Angeles, he absolutely freaked out a group of Leftists and had to be dragged away by his people. He may have reached a reckoning that reasoned discourse was no longer possible. #War.

The documents reveal that the alleged Qatar state-funded espionage campaign targeted Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, because he had sought to have the Muslim Brotherhood designated as a Foreign Terrorist Organization.
The clandestine document, titled “Project ENDGAME” and drafted by U.S. company Global Risk Advisors (GRA), which was founded by the ex-CIA employee Kevin Chalker, reads, “High Alert: An attack on Hamas is an attack on Qatar. An attack on the Muslim Brotherhood is an attack on Qatar.”
I would like to remind you that one Qatar operative, Tucker Carlson, is also very vicious against Cruz.

I'd have to look for the story, but my wife said there was an exchange between Trump and Bondi some time after the latest cabinet meeting where he sort of went off on her. He reportedly told her she just repeats the same BS at every cabinet meeting and "isn't getting anything done."
She's got some sympathetic commenters here, and some that are pretty critical of her.
By every measure of performance in my mind, she's failing. I don't know if she's just too timid for the job or is an active player in the judicial coup.

1) People start voting out left leaning pols specifically because they endorse violence
2) The Trump admin arrests, convicts, and jails the leadership of the left responsible for this
3) The leadership of the left starts being targeted in the same way the leadership of the right is

This is always an open question. But a lot of right leaning politicians like her always just seem to do the minimum and treat these politically sensitive cases like they would some routine case...but she should know there is a whole movement out there looking to free this guy by any means possible. So you don't do the bear minimum.

I first saw it in 1979, in August yet, at an SF convention. (Let's face it, it *is* a fantasy film.) I'd never heard of it and had no idea what to expect. The entire "alternate Bedford Falls" sequence is really disturbing the first time you see it. And that effect doesn't really wear off.
I suppose the reason it was not a big success when first released was that audiences were not in tune with fantasy films. There had not been many by then, Wizard of Oz and a few others, and the big boom in SF monster movies and the A-picture Forbidden Planet were far in the future.

I talk about it in the video, but I think it was a business miscalculation, Capra trying to go independent in 1946 when the Paramount Accords hadn't been written yet and the vertical integration of studios with theaters (along with the practice of block booking for indy theaters) was the norm.
An expensive indie film would have real trouble breaking through and playing for weeks in that environment.
If MGM had distributed it, I think it would have been a huge success.
Capra just tried to go indie 10 years too early.

It's not about the person at the top. The AG doesn't, personally, do much of anything. They give orders and direction. It's up to the myriad lower layers to actually do the work.
The myriad lower layers of the single most corrupt agency in the federal government. Working hand-in-hand with corrupt elements of the judiciary to stop reform from happening. Ask Alina Habba.
But, sure, it's just that Bondi isn't tough enough.

I know several ex-submariners: they are all people that get noticed as tall in a crowd of average people. That short submariner may have been true in WW2, but in the nuclear age not so much. People selected for submarines have to fit a psychological profile more than anything physical: "anyone on a submarine can kill everyone on the sub". Tall people who aren't bullies tend to fit that psyche profile.

Rod Bray, the Senate leader in Indiana, has consistently told us he wouldn't fight redistricting while simultaneously whipping his members against it. That level of dishonesty cannot be rewarded, and the Indiana GOP needs to choose a side.

Well, keep Blondi but create a czar that will monitor, control and direct the actions of the DOJ.
Basically, Blondi is an incompetent buffoon who needs to be shitcanned but as you alluded, her replacement would probably just a shitty as her.

Gabbard and Noem stand out. Both in arguably difficult positions. Linda McMahon, Secretary of Education has been successful in downsizing the department under her purview and stripped a lot of the woke out of it. His press secretary is pretty good too.
But, yea... let's blame the corruption in DoJ and not the AG who's supposed to get that shit under control.
Put her on a PIP (personal improvement plan) and if she's failing that... ax her. I was middle management Fed for 30+ years. That's how you kick ass with an employee who's being recalcitrant. They'll either shape up, or ship out.

Reddit is a screaming dumpster fire, but so is our government, and I can simply ignore Reddit if I choose. So I'm solidly on their side.
Tech News
- Want a high-resolution monitor but still need fast refresh rates for games? Asus' new XG27JG has you covered. (Tom's Hardware)
It's a 5k model which is good enough for almost anything, and runs at 180Hz which is also good enough for almost anything. But if you drop the resolution to 2560x1440 you can boost the refresh rate to 330Hz, which is more than enough.
HDR 600 and 97% of DCI-P3 colour. One small catch: It doesn't work at its full resolution and refresh rate on an Nvidia 4000-series card, because those only support an older version of DisplayPort. Previous generation Radeon 7000 series cards do work, as do all current-generation cards.
Around $835.
- Buying 1152GB of Frakenram for $8000. (Tom's Hardware)
The user put an offer in on a second-hand custom Nvidia AI system that originally cost around $80,000 and managed to get it working.
- Over 10,000 Docker Hub images have been found leaking credentials. (Bleeping Computer)
It's over 10,000!

"Is this the solution to the DDR5 Crisis?"
https://youtu.be/vwJZztIrQO8
He surfed and found deals on an Intel 12900K (MicroCenter CPU bundle with a motherboard), 32GB DDR4, Gen4 1TB SSD, 1000W PSU, and a RX 9070XT, and got the cost to around $1600 for a pretty decent gaming PC at a reasonable cost.
It's not a bad way to start a PC build the way things are with DDR5 pricing driving up the costs on an AM5 platform build.
You could also substitute some AMD 5000 series processors on a AM4 motherboard if you're not an Intel fan. Jay went with Intel because he believes they had a better product that generation. You could also go with an Intel 13th or 14th Gen CPU and still use DDR4.

I wonder if faculty, and especially staff, at universities are being checked on and sometimes rounded up. My former department was determined to be "diverse," and they continually hired foreign Ph.D.s who always required all sorts of visa paperwork and huge payments to the Feds. I muttered under my breath, "You wouldn't have this problem if you hired an American Ph.D.," but I knew no one would listen to me.
I got in trouble one time because Facilities sent three workers to repair my boss's office ceiling who did not speak any English -- not the usual crowd. I asked their office politely if they could send someone who did, so we could communicate. Some Karen over there complained -- not to me, but behind my back to my boss. He was forced to warn me about "such comments."

Soon, too, I need to buy the oil and filter for the next six months.

I have never really adjusted to the time change. I've been waking up at 3:30 or 4:00 every morning aware that I'm not getting back to sleep, so I may as well get up. I go to bed around 10:30 and I'm getting 5 or 6 hours of sleep. I don't feel tired during the day, but by afternoon I want to take a nap.

It's an easy marker for me to remember. And usually at six months the oil life is down to 20-25% with the driving I do here. It's higher than usual this time because of my 2000-mile trip to Indiana in Sept.
I'm using Walmart's own Supertech brand, so I'm not throwing too much money away. If I were running Mobil 1 or Castrol synthetic, I'd need to go longer. But an eight-month or nine-mont interval is harder for me to remember.

According to Mimetic Theory, people are only as good as their culture.
If your culture is fine with wholesale corruption and rape, then if you are corrupt and rape strangers at knife point, then you are not "bad" - as long as you make justifications for your actions according to your culture.
That is probably why the Globalists want to destroy the WASP ethics and moral structure by flooding the West with alien cultures that often are fully incompatible with the predominant culture.
From God's perspective, we are all condemnable and not a thing we do is Good.

Well, that was cool. An almost perfect pass of the ISS overhead here starting at 6:34 AM and lasting about 7 mins. It popped up over the horizon to the SW, and arced pretty high overhead setting to the NE. It was quite bright, sun to the east right at the beginning of nautical twilight here.
And to top of it, saw a meteor as well while watching the sky. And as I type this, the thing is already close to Britain by now. When it first popped up over the horizon, it was just over the Gulf of America.
It was just about perfect alignment for viewing here.

You are so fortunate to see that. A number of years ago, right at the time of maximum satellite flare in the morning, I witnessed the ISS separating from the space shuttle overhead.
I was expecting it so was out there looking for it and was not disappointed. It was kind of sad that there were also a number of people walking their dogs or just walking / running and not a one stopped to look overhead even when they saw me standing there staring up into space.

I got the "Spot the station" app for the stupid phone. They used to have a website for that, but it's defunct, app only now. It's the best for accurate predictions, as they update the orbital elements all the time. Stellarium is generally pretty good, but the orbital elements sometimes won't update fast enough, especially after boosts and other maneuvers they do from time to time.
I was able to see a good pass a few weeks ago on the evening side. There, it passed into earth's shadow a little bit before halfway through the arc overhead. Unlike small satellites which wink out quickly, the ISS is big and reflective enough that it did a slow fade, turning red (red sunlight through the atmosphere, just like a sunset on the ground) before winking out. That was pretty cool.
BUt I see the morning side is the best when the alignment and terminator are just right. You can see the whole pass with the thing lit up the whole time.

1) You Don't Matter. You're not the center of the universe. Your particular salvation or damnation makes no difference to the workings of the rest of the cosmos.
2) You Are Not In Charge. Any thoughts our little neurons squirt out has no bearing on what is or what must be. It can be a fun exercise to think about stuff and see what we can figure out, but the stakes are Zero. We don't have any say in how any of it goes down, only in how we choose to live our lives before it does.
3) None of it matters if you don't have a solid prayer life and actually talk with the one who is in charge of the process. And if you *do* have that, then none of it matters because you'll already have your feet pretty firmly on the right path to do your job as a soul in a meat suit properly without fretting about the rules other people must follow.

Lens flare pictures - occasionally chance deliver a beautiful shot. Here is a lovely one sent along by AoSHQ commenter, nurse ratched.
The subterranean world of Dixia Cheng consists of a network of tunnels and chambers under Beijing that stretches across 33 square miles of underground catacombs. Also named the “Underground Great Wall” for its vastness and military purpose, the tunnel complex was dug by hand by local citizens throughout the 1970s to serve as a shelter during invasions, air raids, or nuclear attacks. At the height of its readiness, there were more than 90 entrances to the underground corridors which were hidden in the backs of homes and businesses. Civilians seeking shelter from Soviet bombardments in the underground complex would have been safe from boredom as well as bombs. Classrooms were constructed for the children living in the underground city, and recreational amenities like a movie theater, barber shops, restaurants, and a roller skating rink were all awaiting a potential flood of refugees. Chambers in auxiliary tunnels held grain, weapons, and other supplies. The underground city also held sites for growing sunless crops like mushrooms and areas prepared for well drilling.Pendleton, OR. Way back days Pendleton boasted a lot of bars, 18 brothels, and what is now an underground (sounds Moron worthy).
Pendleton used to be known as the entertainment capital of Eastern Oregon, and with thirty two bars and eighteen brothels, it's easy to see why this was a hot spot of the old west.Another 37 undergrounds across the world. How about some of those catacombs in Europe?

In short, a lighter teaching load is a badge of professional success.

House #3 will have the best music, overall.
Though the music at #1 is pretty close.
AC/DC and Journey overwhelm the good bands at house #2.
But most of the chicks are at houses #2 and #4, so I may have to re-think my priorities.

Miss Linda came over, I fed her (two eggs, some toast and butter). She spent an hour or two curled around her phone, nothing new there, and announced at eight that she needed to go home. I exhorted her to take some meds for her cold and to be sure to eat something tomorrow morning.
She hates taking even small pills, has an almost indetectable pulse, can't tell me what kind of pain she has when she complains of one, and refuses to eat when she is sick. If I were a doctor and had a bunch of patients as difficult to deal with, I'd be thinking about changing careers.

It has a huge blastproof reinforced vault like door, underground house chambers, cafeteria, medical facilities, sleeping quarters, the whole nine yards for congress to continue operating.
What was strange was some clown reporter for a magazine revealed the existence of the facility, and that was the end of it, gazillions of dollars wasted. They should have sent that fucker to prison for 80 years just on general principles.

But otherwise there would be FAR too many crappy post-1978 Aerosmith songs, cheesy Boston love songs, AC/DC songs that are way overplayed (like Thunderstruck) and lacking in the deeper cuts by Kiss and the great stuff from the Ace Frehley era and instead propped up by Kiss stuff that sucked.
Put me at House Party #1. And whatever idiot referred to Judas Priest in a derogatory manner never owned British Steel or Stained Class or Screaming for Vengeance or Killing Machine or Point of Entry. Metal circles would laugh you out of their presence.

I felt the same way about Osama bin Laden being killed because he "resisted arrest". And conveniently, we didn't have to bother with a trial, including a lot of whining from foreign and domestic liberals about his civil rights. He was shot resisting arrest, and buried at sea, so no one could prove otherwise.

Pi just kills me - an old math professor turned me on to this: π is believed to be a normal number ( π is strongly suspected to be one, though not yet proven). If a number is normal in base 10, then every finite sequence of digits appears with exactly the expected frequency. Even without full normality being proven for π, it has passed every statistical test for normality to millions of digits, so for all practical purposes any finite string you can imagine is essentially guaranteed to appear somewhere in π if you go far enough.
The key mathematical concept is normality of a number (specifically "normal in base 10"). A slightly weaker but still relevant property that π is known to have is that it is disjunctive (every finite sequence appears at least once), which is true for almost all real numbers in the sense of Lebesgue measure.
Your phone number, your birthday, the entire text of Hamlet encoded as digits… all of it is hiding in π if you look far enough out.

In all fairness, neither did Kurt.
Nevermind was produced to a state he didn't necessarily want. "Teen Spirit" was supposed to be some Louie-Louie parody. The single was supposed to be "Come As You Are", a Killers plagiary so obvious that the band was expecting maybe a few hipsters would enjoy.

Not to mention the dreary drugged whine of the tune.

The songs aren't in chronological order for the story, so I don't know if it's "a concept album." But some lyrical and musical themes show up in multiple songs.
Undertow's lyrics are basically "if you love something, set it free." First verse:
Let me go, let me go, let me seek the answers that I need to know.
Let me find a way, let me walk away, through the undertow.
Please let me go.....
But it uses the melody from the bridge of "This Heart Of Mine (I Pledge)" for its guitar solo. The lyrics from that part are:
I believe this heart of mine when it tells my eyes, that this is beauty
I believe this heart of mine when it tells my mind, that this is reason
I believe this heart of mine when it cries at time, that this is forever
I believe this heart of mine when it tells the skies, that this is the face of God

Later, in college, I'd sit up drinking with Mom if I didn't go out with friends. The last thing I wanted to do was get up early on The Day.
Mrs. Wolfus No. 2's extended maternal family had a tradition of gathering in one relative's house on Xmas Eve. Fortunately they all lived pretty close to each other. "I won't inflict my family on you except at Christmas and Easter," she said, and (for once) was as good as her word. I didn't know any of the people and they didn't wear name tags, so I was lost.

$79 billion in COVID fraud could have been prevented if four basic questions were asked.
Is the Social Security Number valid, does the number match the name, does the birthday match, and is the individual ALIVE?

On Tuesday I got a letter from the fed government and the Army. They wrote to inform me that my house and the property it’s on is a designated national superfund site. So it turns out there’s different levels of superfund from Aaagh! we must set our hair on fire spend a billion dollars and bring in the core of engineers! to “well good luck that pal”. My house is on the latter end.
So turns out there was an army camp north of ATL that became an artillery and ordinance training area before WWII. (cont.)

Reported in the last thread. She is out of surgery. Surgeon decided not to do a liver resection, but implanted a pump to deliver chemo drugs directly to her liver.
I don't know if this is good news, or bad news. I would hope it's good news, meaning the surgeon thinks direct application of chemo will save her liver.

Savatage was frigging great. Power of the night and The unholy were killer tunes. The lyrics for The Unholy were genius.
Raging spirits kept from the light, enslaved in worlds of doom

Torches raised, no mercy, victory was theirs
Such was life, in the unholy years

Or, 3) do I surreptitiously toss it in the garbage, pretending it got lost? (I think the universe would punish me for mocking its mysteries like that. Very dangerous.)
If I were living in the days of hand-washing everything, I would just hand-wash it and hang it out with the others. But, nooooo, we have these infernal machines....

If Spock was here he would say 1 and 3 both leaves you a pair short, so you might as well do #1 and still have the socks. #2 is right out.

LoL you reminded me of the coldest my feet have been waking up. We didn’t do much winter camping but did some, and our troop camped out in Northern Arizona one February. It was quite fun, and the first night it snowed about 6 inches - a very quiet, fluffy snow. I had a good zero degree sleeping bag, but I was in an open ended pup tent and my feet stuck out the open end. I remember waking up trying to figure out why my feet were so damned cold, then I looked down and saw 6 inches of snow on the bottom foot of my sleeping bag.

Do a search on DataRepublican's X feed for Venezuela. Under Maduro, it's become quite the hub for anti-American subversion by several bad actors. Antifa and the domestic commies. Iran and the Islamists. And the Chicoms.
A lot of this drug stuff is the Chicoms messing us up. Weaken us by all that drug carnage. And the Chicoms are trying to get in on the oil. Donnie Two Scoops ain't gonna let that happen. This is our backyard, and they ain't gonna fuck around with us there.

The economy was pretty good in the 90s, so I imagine it was fun to complain and whine about how everything sucked, knowing things were actually pretty good overall. This is based on zero research, I was a teenager in the 90s and enjoying Nirvana, but this seems like a possible explanation for this type of music at that time, in hindsight.

Wolfus, if it were a better song musically, instead of a dirge, I could buy that it (the behavior) was an aberration.
My impression of that relationship was more of Harrison and Clapton sharing a muse of sorts, really an it-girl model who was basically a groupie, but who had a career other than just screwing rock stars.
They competed, and she bounced back and forth.
And yes, he had his dreg/drug period like many of them did.
It ain't his best, in any way shape or form, and the sentiment (from my point of view) is just kind of gross.
If it speaks to someone positively, chacun a son gout.
There are people who love "Imagine", too!

Hey, JQ! Thanks for asking.
I kinda went nuts on the thing and bought a slightly larger fuel tank, new fuel pump, multiport fuel injectors, fuel filter, and a new exhaust manifold. I looked at the underside of the exhaust manifold, and found a large crack. Figured if I have to replace it,I might as well go all out and do the injectors and the fuel pump. Mostly an excuse to spend time with my oldest boy, anyway. I'm not just going to do this one for him, so, over the Christmas break...

DH called me from the ER. He was at another doc appt, trying to get his hip pain fixed. Spiked a hideously high BP. They sent him immediately to the ER.
I was at the vet with itchy dogs, finding out they probably have lice.
So, I drive a good 30 miles through rush hour Wasilla, to find DH at ER, who has received a nice high dose of morphine to get his hip to not torture him, and his BP is back down. Not my favorite way to spend the afternoon.
I drove his ass home, and he puked twice on the way. Morphine is a bitch mistress.
Anyway, he doesn't get real pain relief until next Thursday, when they inject his hip with some damned thing that supposed to block the nerve action. One day after I have shoulder surgery.
Fucking hell. So, any prayers you have to offer would be lovely.

Well, done for the night. Got two capacitors replaced, and the pair of wires that go to the output transformer, mounted on the speaker frame. I think I will gut out all the wires that went to the various batteries, and build an outboard power supply that can provided the A, B(2), and C voltages. Control that by the power switch on the panel. There is an octal socket on the rear chassis apron already there for that purpose. I need only reconfigure it.

As it was doc-splained to me, phenergan is a synthesized form of some element from South American tree bark, bringing up images of deathly sick jungle tribesmen stripping the bark off every tree they run into -- and the pusher, a guy on the corner in a Panama hat and trenchcoat going "Yo, kid -- wanna quit pukin'?"

NCKate,
When we lost our last dog we were looking at the dog rescue sites. We would see a dog we were willing to adopt, but it turned out that a lot of the sites were bait and switch operations.
We would be told that dog is no longer available for adoption but we have all these pitbull rescues.
No dice.

it is very rare to find any pitbulls, nearly everything is a "pit mix" and if you read the studies about those you see that there's no meaningful standard for determining what is a pit and what is not, it is usually done by visual identification and the standards vary from region to region across country.
find something you have a good report with and youre food to go

The real reality is pit bull is not a real breed. It's a name for dogs with a mix of terrier breeds.
Terriers tend to be aggressive. It's their nature. Different breeds do have different characteristics just like horses and other animals. Doesn't mean they can't be raised to be good pets but no, all breeds are not the same.

My cats are indoor-outdoor cats, and they made it pretty old. I think the two oldest ladies are 17, and the old toms were 15 - one had a cancer and one got et and he was always a bit sickly.
I think it is a mix of wet and dry food that is best, and control the fleas and parasites.
Cats don't like bitterness, and sometimes tap water can be bitter to them. That can keep them from drinking enough water, so I put a pinch of salt in the water bowl to take away some of the bitterness for them. Cats are prey to kidney problems so the extra water is best for them.

Then are there are other breeds that are way less vicious than pits, too? Or are pits nicer than, say, golden retrievers?

Watching the first broadcast Trek episode, "The Man Trap." It struck me anew how hushed Shatner's delivery is as he narrates the captain's log, as if he is trying not to intrude on the story or trying not to be overheard. It made me try to remember some other TV show or movie where I'd noted the same thing.
It took me half an hour to recall: the narration by Joe, William Holden, for Sunset Boulevard. It's almost as if Joe does not want to be overheard -- or is talking on the phone with someone and is keeping his voice down to as not to disturb someone else. The technique is appropriate in both properties.

Most shelters have no idea what they are looking at, they guess. If that lab mix you are adopting has eyes in different zip codes, you are looking at a pit mix. Shelters And try really hard to avoid pit labeling, too. It’s DNA testing that is showing the high levels of pits in shelter dogs. Also, shelters are interesting in that they send dogs to other shelters all the time. Some of it is to level vet spend, I will take 1 high needs dog of yours if you take those 5 pit / husky crosses. It’s kind of bizarre - if they get a purebred dog in, a lot of shelters will not allow a direct adoption but will send them to a breed rescue who will charge you 3 times as much to adopt.

I am in Alabama, I don’t work with shelters directly. One of my very good friends is a well known Shiba rescuer- though he will go get any breed that needs to be saved. He is contacted by lots of private rescue organizations who don’t have room or resources and he will drive wherever to get them and match to his list of prospective adopters or bring them to legit breed rescue orgs or fosters who do have room. He also has a Shiba sanctuary for those with bite histories, etc. people really do not understand how difficult Shibas are, they get them because they are cute. Anyway, that is another conversation. The things he goes through with actual shelters is incredibly frustrating. The stories are maddening.

Are you retarded? Not a personal attack, but you do understand the concept of letting someone make a total ass of themselves and just feeding them so that they do it again and again.
That is what Trump is doing. He will not defy a court order. He scrupulously follows them, no matter how unlawful or asinine, and he leaves it to the other judges to untangle this bullshit the the left has spun for itself.
Trump's brain trust knows that this is twisting Roberts' guts because it is destroying the legitimacy of the courts. There is no precedent, no reason behind these rulings, just naked assertions of power, and as much as these judges are slapped down, they do it again. And so Trump lets the guy go, and then will arrest him because HE'S HERE ILLEGALLY, and they can't get past that. They just keep saying "MOAR PROCESS," so he gives it to them.

At the SpayMart location yesterday, they had a sign up advertising their "Match a Senior Cat to a Senior" program. You have to be 68 or older, and the cat will be 7 or more. They match you up, give you 14 days of food and supplies, and provide some initial vet care as well as giving the animal vaccinations in advance. And they will take the cat back if it proves you can't care for him.
Since a 7-year-old cat is only about 35-40 in human terms, it's a bit of a mismatch in the name, but the idea is that an older cat will be more settled and easier for an older human to handle.

The Big Dummy walked at today's Central Florida KC show. Her Majesty said that under this judge the dog had to be lame to have a chance. But TBD looked good and showed well. He has tomorrow off, then the AKC National Championship show Saturday.

With cats, there are Siamese, Maine Coon, Somali, Siberian, Norwegian Forest Cat, Persian . . . yes, I guess so.
With dogs, Ive usually seen "German shepherd" rather than "German Shepherd," and "collie," lower case, including "border collie." But there's Labrador, Newfoundland, Corgi, Schipperke, and lots more.

A subspecies name is also not capitalized, e.g., Homo sapiens sapiens. Are breeds listed as part of a species name? Aren't breeds considered to be the same species, as collies and dachshunds are both Canis familiaris? All the breeds of humans are considered to be one species.

Mrs. Wrecks had a dream that it was she who was driving the car and became obsessed with that thought. She searched her car and noticed a few tiny dents and a spot of what might have been blood. She was trying to establish an alibi but neither she nor I can remember where she was at the time. I tried my best to talk her down since her guilt is based upon absolutely nothing but had little success. Finally, tonight, six days later, the paper admits the driver stayed at the scene and has been identified. So Mrs. Wrecks is off the hook. Hopefully, life can return to normal or, at least, no more weird than usual.

That's a common misconception. It ignores inverse square behavior and signal to noise and all that, vs omnidirectional vs our signals that are more "beamed" and so forth.
Our general radio/TV and communications stuff would be detectable only about 5 - 20 ly away. The high end would require an Arecibo size disk and the best detection we have now.
Very high power, highly beamed stuff that got blasted off the planet from military radars and stuff would be detectable maybe 50 ly away, but the aliens would have to be right in the angular line of sight.
They've done planetary radar studies, using Arecibo at high power for instance. Very tight beams, high power. Those might get out a few thousand ly, but again, narrow line of sight.

CNN: Obama's White House Counsel Routinely Advised and Defended Jeffrey Epstein
Gee I wonder why.Friendship? Really?
When billionaire sex offender Jeffrey Epstein needed legal advice, help responding to negative press, or just moral support, he often turned to an unexpected confidante -- Kathy Ruemmler, an elite attorney who served two US presidents and was once a top candidate for US attorney general. As thousands of new documents tied to Epstein have been released, many of those closest to him have paid a steep price for their friendship by forfeiting influential jobs and weathering fierce public blowback. Yet Ruemmler, a former White House counsel for Barack Obama, has maintained a prestigious post as chief legal officer for Goldman Sachs.
Note this is after Jeffrey Epstein's conviction for prostitution. Which was understood to actually be about underaged child sex trafficking. But their "friendship" endured.
The bank has continued to stand by her -- even as emails show Epstein calling her "my great defender" and seeking her help pushing back on reports detailing his abuse of underage girls. A CNN KFile review of Epstein's emails and travel schedules sheds new light on his relationship with the power-broking lawyer and shows that their ties went far beyond professional advice and into the realm of a friendship. Among the many high-profile and notable names that appear in the Epstein messages, Ruemmler is one of the most frequently referenced, with more than 100 exchanges between her and Epstein over several years. Epstein's schedule reveals that he was set to meet with Ruemmler more than 50 times between July 2014 and May 2019, including for lunches and dinners with celebrities, apartment hunting, and personal beauty appointments. As early as 2014, the year that Ruemmler left the Obama White House, the pair already appeared close, with Ruemmler telling Epstein in one email, "I'll be here all week -- you may get sick of me."
Perfect! Then the emails are not privileged.
In a statement to CNN, Ruemmler said, "In 2014, I barely knew Jeffrey Epstein. My remark was a throwaway line in response to his invitation to attend multiple meetings with business contacts." Across the many messages, Ruemmler emerges as a confidant and advocate for Epstein, at times helping him manage his public reputation following his 2008 conviction for soliciting prostitution from a minor.
Epstein's estate is fighting to keep hundreds of additional emails between Ruemmler and Epstein private, arguing that they are protected by attorney-client privilege. The privilege log shows that Ruemmler continued to communicate with Epstein through at least June 2019 and suggests she was more involved with Epstein's legal affairs than previously known. In a statement to CNN, Ruemmler referred to Epstein as a "business referral source" when she was at the law firm Latham & Watkins and that she knew him in a "professional capacity" when she served as head of the white collar defense group at the firm. But she said she "did not represent him and was not compensated by him."
I assume this is the statement she drafted for her "friend" the pedophile sex trafficker.
CNN sent a series of questions to Ruemmler and Goldman Sachs prior to publication. Ruemmler provided answers to several of them, but others she declined to directly answer -- including whether she was involved with drafting a public relations statement for Epstein or took part in discussions to help him respond to media inquiries about his sexual abuse.
In 2019, as major outlets reexamined Epstein's long history of sexually abusing minors, he invoked her advice directly. In a text message from that year, Epstein said Ruemmler helped him craft a public-relations statement in response to a forthcoming Washington Post editorial calling for Congress to investigate him. At 4 a.m. on March 7, 2019, Epstein texted a draft statement to a contact redacted by House investigators, calling it a "Ruemmler proposal" and writing, "this is what Kathy suggests we tell Waco," correcting the typo seconds later to "Wapo." The statement -- which Epstein said Ruemmler provided -- rejected claims he received a "sweetheart deal" in his 2008 conviction and argued prosecutors had pursued him too aggressively. "The criticism is wrong and reflects a fundamental misunderstanding of both [the] facts underlying Mr. Epstein's case and how it was prosecuted by both local and federal authorities. Far from a receiving a sweetheart deal, Mr. Epstein was subjected to a lengthy, aggressive, and highly unusual federal investigation for what were, in essence, local offenses of sexual solicitation. He accepted responsibility, served time and prison, and paid significant monetary settlements to the victims involved," said the statement.While Jeffrey Epstein's other "friends" have paid a price, this Democrat woman -- no privilege here! -- continues working for Goldman Sachs.
Obviously no lawyer is actually worth $22.5 million per year. She's being paid for political influence. She's a fixer. She knows what officials to call when you need a favor or you're in a jam. That's why she was "friends" with Jeffrey Epstein. And I do not believe that her "friendship" was uncompensated. I think, based on this revelation, that The Walls Are Really Closing In on Trump now.
But Ruemmler has managed to fly under the radar despite working as the top lawyer for one of the world's largest banks, where she made $22.5 million last year.

I mean $22.5 million a year as a CONTRACT to a historic legal team already raises an eyebrow. But $22.5 million to a singular person sets off alarm bells and whistles. When "little people" (and not so little people) wonder aloud about the integrity of free enterprise, its cases like this that cause the doubt. Because I guarantee you this bitch isn't worth $22.5 million to her employer as an attorney.

There is NO history of marriage or children, or if she's a lesbo (Hillary liked her, so possible). One goofy AI source said she was married to Bob Bauer, which is apparently bullsharte.
She's 71yrs old, not hideous looking in the way of Rosa, so you'd THINK there would be a history of something other than her vast legal career (I like to say vast whenever Hag Hil is on my mind).
Did she get her kicks on Route 66? She denies going to Pedo Island, but a flight took her there.

That was bad enough but they further spit in the face of every law abiding citizen and released him after only 9 years. He was out for only a short time before being arrested this week for violating parole .
Mean while the Oklahoma pharmacist who shot an armed robber and then shot him again when he still thought he could be a danger is still serving a life sentence. And Chavin has another 15 years to serve before parole consideration and the Somali cop ,Noor who shot the unarmed white lady for no reason is free as a bird after serving only 3 years.

Prior to the Cold War, relations between the US and Russia were quite cordial. Obviously the Alaska purchase helped, but at a low point in the Civil War Russia sent a fleet to visit New York. It was a move to piss on the British, but it was also one of the few European powers to not have a serious hard-on for Confederate slave cotton.

That's about an exoplanet, TOI-270 d. It's a planet about 70-ish ly away orbiting a red dwarf. It's looking like this is what was recently dubbed a "hycean" (hydrogen + ocean) planet. Heavy H2 atmosphere, but with a liquid water ocean underneath.
These could be good candidates for life.
I'm thinking I may live to see something very interesting discovered. I think it's just a matter of time, really.

Lowly District Judge Orders "Maryland Man" and Human Trafficker Kilmar Abrego-Garcia Released from Custody
The judge was appointed by Obama. Weird how the media never points that out. They only note which judges were appointed by Republicans.
U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis issued the order, granting Abrego Garcia's petition for relief. "Since Abrego Garcia's return from wrongful detention in El Salvador, he has been re-detained, again without lawful authority. For this reason, the Court will GRANT Abrego Garcia's Petition for immediate release from ICE custody," Xinis wrote. ... Federal law enforcement have floated deporting him to an alternate destination, though they have struggled to secure the judicial go-ahead. "Maryland Obama Judge Panagiota (Paula) Xinis is a lawless and dangerous radical," Article3Projecte found Mike Davis posted on X. She just illegally ordered the release of "Saint" Kilmar Abrego Garcia, an MS13 terrorist and the Democrat patron saint of wife-beating and human trafficking."

President Trump revealed Wednesday afternoon that U.S. authorities intercepted a Cuba-bound oil tanker off the Venezuelan coast, a dramatic move aimed at tightening the squeeze on illicit oil networks operating throughout the region. Speaking to reporters at the White House, Trump described the vessel as "a very large tanker -- the largest one ever seized in action," hinting that more developments are coming. He declined to get into specifics, saying only that the operation happened "for a very good reason." When asked about the tanker's crude, Trump didn't overcomplicate it. "Well, we keep it, I guess," he said. According to a U.S. official familiar with the operation, the seizure was executed by the Coast Guard with support from the U.S. Navy after a federal judge green-lit the warrant roughly two weeks ago. Another official told the New York Times the ship -- identified as the Skipper -- had been sailing under a falsified flag and has a documented history of trafficking illicit Iranian oil. The vessel, although carrying Venezuelan crude at the time, was seized because of those Iranian smuggling ties, not because of any direct connection to Nicolás Maduro's regime. Vanguard, a UK-based maritime risk firm, confirmed Wednesday that the Skipper fits the profile of a tanker previously sanctioned by the United States for operating under the alias Adisa while moving banned Iranian oil. A source speaking to Politico said the ship was on its way to Cuba, where state-run Cubametales intended to flip the cargo to Asian brokers -- an increasingly common workaround as U.S. sanctions isolate both Havana and Caracas from traditional buyers. With most Venezuelan product now flowing to China under the sanctions regime, oil traders began recalibrating almost immediately after the news broke. Prices ticked upward modestly as markets waited to learn whether any Venezuelan crude was on board and how much would be effectively taken off the table.
Today, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Homeland Security Investigations, and the United States Coast Guard, with support from the Department of War, executed a seizure warrant for a crude oil tanker used to transport sanctioned oil from Venezuela and Iran.

These are new, aluminum hulled boats with brand-new high-power quad mercury outboards, moving at 40 knots in international waters, between Venezuela and points north. They are being intercepted > 200 miles off the coast of Venezuela. Thinking for one second they are "fishing" boats is insane.
Venezuela is dirt poor - fishermen cannot afford these boats. The fuel alone to run at that speed...no amount of fishing in a small boat like that could ever pay for the gas, motors, or boat.

Not nearly enough to reach US waters from Venezuela. Certainly not out on the open ocean... I doubt they're built for that unless it's unusually calm. And the range... is beyond their onboard ability.
So.... I think they run up the Central American coast and jet into Mexico to off load. The drugs are then transported overland into the US.

He is now free.

He will stay free and he will shuttled all over the US as the face of the wronged.
All because Bindi couldn't take the heat from the press of "wrongfully deported."

The fuel consumption of outboard engines can vary, but a typical large outboard engine might burn around 15 to 25 gallons per hour at wide-open throttle, depending on its horsepower and efficiency. For five big outboard engines, you could estimate a total fuel burn of approximately 75 to 125 gallons per hour.

400 miles at 45mph = 8hr 45minutes 8.75
8.75hrs X 125 gallons per hour = 1111.11 gallons
I don't think those boats have room for that much fuel.

But so far, the whole thing has been pretty damned embarrassingly incompetent.
Especially that not one thing they promised would happen, has.
The DOJ had one win in all this: SCOTUS said the courts couldn't force the Executive to conduct foreign policy and return him.

According to Grok, these "go-fast" boats make short dashes to islands like Trinidad and Tobago, and then offload the cargo to other ships and aircraft, refuel then head back.
The routes they use are constantly changing, and all that. But these short go-fast trips can be very profitable.

Apparently, a typical run for these go-fast boats (that's what they call them) is under 200 nm. The run to Trinidad takes up to an hour, about 50 nm path max.
That's the most common run. Next up is to Aruba or Curaco, around 120 nm max, 2 hour max.
Sometimes, they try a long run to the Dominican Republic, up to 600 nm, taking maybe 12 hours, but that's risky. Grok says the fuel tanks are 400-800 gallons, and they'll carry extra fuel in drums for any longer run attempts. The faster they go the more fuel they'll burn, and the more extra fuel, the less drugs they can carry.

Tom Homan: You Better Believe We're Investigating Ilhan Omar for Immigration Fraud
She is here illegally. Deport her.
The following has been credibly alleged and supported with evidence: Ilhan "Omar" Nur committed immigration fraud twice. The second time was when she married her own brother -- while already married to her real husband -- to get her gay brother permanent residence in the US.
Tom Homan, President Donald Trump's border czar, said during a Newsmax appearance on Monday that the administration is investigating Representative Ilhan Omar for alleged immigration fraud. "I just got advised by a fraud investigator the other day on that. I asked the question, can we review the files? You know, there was immigration fraud involved," Homan said on Newsmax. "The statute of limitation became an issue in the last four years when this was first brought up." He continued, "Pulling the records now, pulling the files, and we're looking at it. But this fraud investigator, who I know personally, one of the best fraud investigators in HSI, Homeland Security Investigations, said there's no doubt he'd review the file. So, I'm running that down this week as a matter of fact, and we'll see."
The first time was when she first came over. The patriarch of the Omar family had refugee status for his family. But Ilhan was not his daughter -- she is the daughter of a man named Nur, who she repeatedly called her "father" before people noticed her calling this man Nur "father" instead of her supposed father Omar. (She would later claim that it's a custom in her particular village in Somalia to call people who aren't your father "father" out of respect. No one else has ever heard of this "custom.") She pretended to be part of the Omar family when she came over. But she wasn't. She's part of the Nur family, and never had legal permission to come.

I knew the testing was all theater early on. At my work we were supposed to be tested at random. So I went twice. The second time they left me on my own to take my nose sample. I simply put the q-tip into the jar without probing my proboscis.
Result: Negative. Not "We did not have material for a sample; please come in again." Just "negative."
I stopped going, and there were never any repercussions. There was no enforcement. They just expected us to comply like good little workers.

>>Ilhan "Omar" Nur committed immigration fraud twice.
She pretended to be part of the Omar family when she came over. But she wasn't.
---------------
Omar isn't even her name. That lie alone is enough to invalidate her citizenship.
Posted by: toby928(c)
================
These are the points that everyone seems to be missing right now. The brusband is overshadowing Ilhan's false identity crime, as people seem to think she married her brother so SHE could come to the US instead of vice versa. (Trump contributed to the confusion on this.)
Very few people seem to be aware as of yet that she isn't an Omar; she's a Nur. Ilhan herself is running around like a dervish fighting the brusband story and I think it's to keep people focused on that so they don't learn about that she's actually Ilhan Nur, not Ilhan Omar.

Illhan and her brother need to be publicly brought forward and proven that they committed immigration fraud. Provide all the evidence, get DNA testing and confirm it. Then they need to be publicly dropped off back in Somalia with bags of their own money strapped to them.

As I understand it, she got suddenly rich when she married that white American. He's the one with the money. If she (please God) got deported it would be very interesting to see if Mr. 'Til Death Do Us Part goes with her or even stays married. Failing deportation (see handle), would he stay with her if she got some sort of legal handling that got her kicked out of Congress?

On the other hand, wasn't there a plotline in the Marvel Comics long ago with Iron Man being an alcoholic and finding he could not do his job? I only have some dim memory at glancing at one comic page and being told the story. Maybe late '70s. No idea if it was Tony Stark, or someone else.

The Atlantic Admits That the 100% Safe Covid Vaccine Killed Children (But Finds Room to Attack Vaccine Skeptics Anyway)
Steve Jobs' Widow's Vanity Magazine The Atlantic takes a "pox on both their houses" position on the covid vaccines: The "health authorities" and their I-Believe-In-Science allies are criticized for denying the undeniable, that the covid vaccines did cause myocarditis and death in children, particularly young boys.
But the article of course also criticizes those who correctly and honestly pointed out that the vaccine was dangerous for children, particularly young boys, because... well, because they're On the Other Side and it's very gauche of them to be right about The Science. David Strom excerpted this yesterday.On the Friday after Thanksgiving, Vinay Prasad, the FDA's top vaccine regulator, made a claim that shocked the public-health establishment. "For the first time," he wrote in a leaked email to his staff, "the US FDA will acknowledge that COVID-19 vaccines have killed American children." The agency had supposedly identified at least 10 children who died from getting COVID shots. ... To say the email was poorly received by vaccine experts and physicians would be an understatement. Prasad's claim provoked a rapid series of rebuttals. A response from 12 former FDA commissioners, published in The New England Journal of Medicine on Wednesday, called Prasad's memo "a threat to evidence-based vaccine policy and public health security." All of the potential vaccine-related deaths reported to the government, presumably including those to which Prasad referred, had already been reviewed by the agency's staff, the former commissioners wrote, and "different conclusions" had been reached. Elsewhere, doctors and scientists declared that absolutely no evidence links COVID-19 vaccines to death in children; and that in order to suggest otherwise, Prasad and his colleagues had engaged in an "evidence-manufacturing mission," a "dumpster dive" for shoddy data, or--worse--a campaign of lying. ...there's something troubling--and telling--in the fact that his memo has provoked people to deny even the possibility of COVID-vaccine-related deaths. The idea that mRNA-based shots have, tragically, killed a very small number of children is not far-fetched. It also doesn't imply a catastrophic threat to public health, given that tens of millions of doses of these vaccines have safely been given out to young people. From the start of the coronavirus pandemic, lack of nuance has been a problem with public-health messaging--one that anti-vaccine advocates have made use of to great effect. Now, in a moment when public health in America is under existential threat, this insistence that no evidence exists for vaccine-related deaths risks adding to the crisis.But children did not need the "vaccines," meaning that the risks of mandating it to them -- and the deaths that then occurred -- were absolutely unnecessary.
No public-health authorities deny that COVID shots can have some ill effects. Adverse reactions are possible with all medical interventions. The mRNA-based vaccines produced by Pfizer and Moderna, in particular, are known to cause myocarditis--inflammation of the heart--on rare occasions, especially in teenage boys and young men. The form of myocarditis that occurs after vaccination is typically far less severe than the one caused by viruses; for unclear reasons, mRNA-related cases have largely disappeared in recent years. But this condition can be deadly, and considering the hundreds of millions of mRNA doses that have been administered to Americans, even extraordinarily unlikely outcomes may well be inevitable.He doesn't want to lose his Leftwing Pinhead Membership Card, so he now pivots to attacking those who correctly said that children do not need the vaccine and in fact seem to be harmed by it:
Strom points out that this joker believes that RFKJr. is an "existential threat" to public health. Not the people who mandated that children take a vaccine that they did not need and which actually murdered a couple dozen of them, but the guy saying "Let's review the necessity and efficacy and safety of vaccines." Strom mentions that once upon a time, he assumed the best of public health officials. Not any longer, of course. I've written about this, but I'll mention it again: My own realization that public health officials consider it a badge of honor to blatantly lie to the pubic about public health -- to convince the uneducated to do what the educated want them to do, through any means necessary, including public disinformation campaigns -- came when I saw CNN's health correspondent Sanjay Gupta interview Obama's head of the CDC during the ebola outbreak. During that outbreak, "The experts" decided to downplay the risk of the disease, instead of being hyper-alarmist. They did so because Obama had decided that the First Black President must never impose a temporary travel ban to any African country, even one in the midst of an ebola outbreak. So the marching orders went out to public health officials to convince the Uneducated Bigots of America that ebola was no big deal, really, You Racists. Obama's CDC director claimed that ebola wasn't a danger for spreading because it could not be spread by "airborne transmission" but only by "direct contact." He said this specifically to allay fears of people on planes, trains, and buses that they could catch ebola from a fellow passenger. Gupta asked, "So there's no risk if someone with ebola sneezes on another passenger? " Obama's lying CDC directed reiterated that "ebola cannot be spread by airborne transmission," asserting that this statement answered the question. But it didn't. Because we later learned that "airborne transmission" refers to disease-carrying bodies remaining in the air for hours and hours after the infected person has left the room. It refers to particles so light that they just "bounce" up and down in the air and don't sink to the ground for days. But a sneeze is not considered "airborne transmission," even though it sounds like it should be, and even though Obama's CDC director insinuated that a sneeze would be a case of airborne transmission and ebola could not be spread by airborne transmission. No, Gupta later told viewers in an update: A sneeze is considered direct contact with the infected person -- the spittle passes directly from them to anyone hit by the spray -- so yes, ebola is easily spread by a sneeze. And Obama's CDC director knew this, but he wanted to lie to the public, per Obama's wish to downplay the outbreak, so he told the world that ebola could not be passed via a sneeze. It was a straight up lie. But he told it because the "experts" had decided that the value of keeping travel open to Africa outweighed Racist Americans' bigoted ideas about ebola being a killer disease that could literally liquify your internal organs, so "The Science" was changed to convince people of the political decision the "experts" had decided was best for them. Earlier this year I started watching House, MD. The main character is an arrogant sociopath who routinely lies to patients about the risks or benefits of a course of treatment. He justifies this by noting that he went to medical school whereas most patients did not, and so he knows the right course of action and they simply don't. When told that this violates the law of informed consent, he snaps back that informed consent is a lie because informed consent is impossible for non-experts. So might as well lie to them or trick them into doing "the right thing," at least according to "the experts." I mention that, of course, because it's not just a trait given to a fictional character on a TV show. There are a lot of people in medicine and particularly in the highly political field of government "public health" who share House's view on the impossibility of true informed consent and therefore the justification for simply lying to people to get them to do the "right" thing. If you meet with a doctor, you're the client. But you are not the client of "public health officials." The government, specifically the President or the state governor, is their client. That's the person they are working for. You are just the rubes they're hustling to sell a product to.
The possibility--perhaps the likelihood--that a handful of vaccine-related deaths occurred and were downplayed by medical authorities does not undermine the fact that COVID vaccination, on the whole, has prevented death on a massive scale. Nor does it justify sweeping changes to vaccine regulations. Rather, it suggests the need for some targeted reforms, such as improvements to the country's vaccine-adverse-event reporting system--and also tells us that a strategy of minimizing tragic outcomes, however rare, may not be the best way to protect a vital instrument of public health.

One of the core things about the modern bureaucracy is there is never to be punishment for failure to achieve whatever the supposed goal of the bureaucracy is.
So pointing out that the NIH, CDC, and FDA all completely failed at COVID and expecting consequences is...wrong. In the old days of course the leadership of each would be fired and maybe proscuted.
But the only area the permanent bureaucracy wants consequences for is if people demand accountability like RFK is doing.

Mine was when Fauci and the gang decided to announce that a huge wave of heterosexual AIDS was about to sweep the country, to avoid "stigmatizing" homosexuals and injectable drug users, who constituted almost all the actual AIDS cases.
At a time when most AIDS cases were occurring in a couple of dozen urban neighborhoods with large quantities of homosexuals and IV drug users, instead of focusing on those neighborhoods, the Federal government was spending hundreds of millions of dollars telling normal high school students that they were at high risk of contracting AIDS.

Fauci defunded and marginalized the big names that opposed him out of the gate. Most of the rest of the establishment noted that and either shut up or started helping him.
We note for many cops the job is "come home safely until I can get retirement" well the same is true for most government scientists and pretty much all government bureaucrats.

“Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience. They may be more likely to go to Heaven yet at the same time likelier to make a Hell of earth. This very kindness stings with intolerable insult. To be "cured" against one's will and cured of states which we may not regard as disease is to be put on a level of those who have not yet reached the age of reason or those who never will; to be classed with infants, imbeciles, and domestic animals.” -CS Lewis

2) Arguing no leftist anyway want to imprison people for refusing the clot shot or wanted to take their kids away
3) Arguing that we really should have imprisoned dissidents on the clot shot and taken their children away.
In fact it was common to see a type 2 response showing up right below a type 3 response...

(I joke about toenails, but car accidents is a tell.)
The study is held as defnitive proof, but let me quickly show the flaw. The study looks at the entire French population and then separates out those who got a vaccine and those who didn't.
But it uses interaction with health care system as the mechanism to ID those cohorts. See the problem? The vaccinated group all went to Dr. to get vaccine, the unvaccinated group only count if they ... were sick and went to the Dr.
Anyway, let me get that out there if anyone is interested.

But no worries, because the tradeoff was worth it. The graphic compared the chance of death from COVID (possibly adverse reactions, but I’m pretty sure it was death) with the chance of catching COVID, and there was no contest. The chance of catching COVID swamped the chance of death from the vaccine.
Which leads me to suspect that the chance of death from the vaccine swamps the chance of death from catching COVID.

It killed/injured a number of people, but it wasn't obvious at first because no one was collecting this type of data.
60 Minutes of all shows did an investigation and it turned out the FDA had ignored test data and then intentionally didn't follow up on investigating as they should have. Hell they had a letter from one employee to his boss saying they needed to get this shot off the market and when they presented it to the boss he claimed he never got the letter...
This scandal led to VARS since they needed a single entry point for this sort of data to be able to find bad vaccines in the future.
And of course as we know the clot shot ended up having more entries in VARS then all other vaccines over VARS's 30 year history by a factor of more then 1000.

This is another game the left plays. If you show the data that the clot shot had *no* reduction in your risk of getting COVID they'll tell you no one ever claimed that it did (yeah ignore Biden saying it on national TV and using it as grounds for his mandates). But then later they'll note that if you don't get your shot you are putting grandma at risk...

"But COVID's worse," he added. A case of COVID-19 is about 10 times as likely to induce myocarditis as an mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccination, Wu said."
But this Dr. clearly failed statistics. The "COVID" cohort here are people who presented at hospital. That is maybe 1% of covid actual cases. So 1/1000 who have covid (by his numbers) have myocarditis. But 1/10 of vaccinated do (his number - "10x worse")
So it appears "Covid's much worse," in reality, the vaccine is a killer. He is looking at the data and LYING.

Knowing that DC was working behind the scenes to recruit BLM as riot army should Trump win in 2020, I can conceive that we might not have seen "actually masks work!" or possibly even the shutdown.
It was mid-2020 when social media started banning people who questioned the legitimacy of mail-in balloting. Even though mass mail-in balloting was not something that was tried and true, and has always had mainline skeptics.
I entertain that the powers that be turned America upside down--creating the closest thing to fascism America has ever seen--to fix the 2020 election.

The Scotus decision in Jacobson v. Massachusetts, 197 U.S. 11 (1905) by a rather progressive court full of undistinguished corporate lawyers (decided the same year as Lochner) said it was perfectly fine for the State of Mass to order compulsory vaccinations on the explicit idea that the needs of the many outweighed the rights of the individual.
This is despite the fact that Jacobson could demonstrate past bad reactions to the smallpox vaccine as a child in Sweden and he had already been vaccinated against smallpox.
Bad bloviating by progressive justices indicate Jacobson should trust the experts based on experiences in foreign countries.

Apparently, the technicality is that the DOJ didn't produce an order of removal.
However, Garcia's lawyers admitted, in early discussions in the court, that Garcia was under an order of removal.
So, factual assertion that the defense had admitted to the judge is throwing as not established. Which means...appeal and stay and remand (no...the higher courts are not going to remove Xinis, unfortunately).

Trump was naive, but well intentioned. He never called for a national shut-down: that was due to state and community leaders. The mandatory “vaccination” occurred under Biden not Trump. It was not required in my state, and I worked for the state: I never took it. The MRNA based “vaccine” should be outlawed. Some countries are moving in that direction. That is one thing I will hold against Trump. He doesn’t want to admit how badly he was fooled. Let’s hope that once burnt, twice shy applies here. I know I will never blindly accept vaccination again, but will research what it is first. Basically do not accept any MRNA-based shot.

The actual effectiveness of the flu vaccine is pretty low.
Even if they pick the correct variant coming out of China it will have mutated significantly by the time it gets to you.
The real answer here would be to blockade China or at least force them to change their farming habits but...that's not going to happen

I had that problem a lot during Covid, as I am slightly deaf (though my wife might say more than "slightly"). I had to go to a FedEx office and there was this girl behind the counter, from which I had to stand six feet away, of course. The girl was a soft speaker anyway, but with the face diaper on I couldn't hear a word she was saying. Finally, I just marched up to the counter, and told her I couldn't hear her. That was the only way I was able to hear her and get done what I was there to do.

My understanding is that it provided little to no actual resistance to COVID as the disease mutates too quickly for a standard vaccine to work and China *knew* this when they mandated domestically.
But they apparently felt a placebo was a better choice then the clot shot.

Depends on state laws in many cases. Public Health is a police power of state governments under the 10th Amendment. But overlaid is the complex regulations of Federal grant and health care programs like Medicaid, Medicare, and Tricare among others.
The whole edifice of mandatory vaccinations rests on the very old Jacobson v. Mass case of 1905 where an individual challenged Mass law that ignored the rights of individuals altogether to avoid the vaccination but fined non-compliers with a $5 penalty. Jacobson sued alleging violations of his federally protected civil rights because he had been vaccinated as a child for smallpox in Sweden and sustained a vaccination injury. His argument thus that he was exempt from Mass law because of prior vaccination and individual heightened risk from a new one was brushed aside by the Mass Sup. Ct.
US Scotus allowed Mass's fine to stand based on its perverted trust in experts and authority.

The scales fell from my eyes, when public health officials started diving into gun control and other issues as "health" issues.
Posted by: El Mariachi - Attorney at Law at December 11, 2025 04:10 PM (gDhA9)
Getting the "vaccines" mandated for children WAS absolutely necessary for the Deep State, because then the "vaccine" is no longer under only Emergency Use Authorization. If I remember correctly, vaccine companies could be sued for health issues and deaths if the "vaccine" remained on the EUA.
But once the "vaccine" was mandated for children, it was no longer under EUA and no one could sue for any harm or death that came from the "vaccine". There was complete immunity for the government and the drug companies.
That was the entire reason the Deep State pushed for mandating it for children who didn't need it... to prevent lawsuits for all the harm and death it caused.

Posted by: Wolfus Aurelius, Dreaming of Elsewhere at December 11, 2025 04:16 PM (wzUl9)
Thalidomide wasn't approved here. Someone at the FDA whose name escapes stopped it, as there wasn't enough safety data. That spared us compared to Europe and others. It was given here, I think, but not as much as it would've been if the FDA at the time approved it.

Not only did masking not work during the Spanish Flu, Fauci himself wrote a paper which essentially stated that more people died of bacterial pneumonia caused from wearing masks and spreading bacteria than people died of Spanish Flu.
So Fauci knew this from his own research and still pushed mask-wearing. It was an op. A WEF and Deep State op. From the beginning.

Unless you're born into a crack den, you most likely don't need it. But doctors don't want to have that conversation, so they mandate EVERYONE have it. If you try to opt out, they will do their damndest to FORCE it on you. You might even have to deal with a CPS investigation.

“I don’t think many of the tech mafia wives realize… they were used to set the groundwork for what Klaus Schwab calls The Great Reset.
Their money especially was being conscripted through a network of NGO advisors, Hollywood, Davos, and their own companies.
A really small group of people… completely blind to how their groundwork is being used to enable these Great Reset policies.”

What it comes down to is NOT about premature deaths or immune system compromise or even dead kids. It comes down to the self-proclaimed educated make the wrong call, and compromising their own health in the process by taking their own advice and shooting up the clot shot...AND noticing all those great unwashed rubes were better prepared and smarter than they were throughout the conceived crisis.
They hate those who didn't fall for the "vaccine" hype. Because they wish they had done the same. All this chattering (like in this article) is an attempt at rationalizing their stupidity.

If a traditional vaccine, yes. It is not a true sterilizing vaccine like smallpox (permanent or very long protection) because he flu, cold, and now covid viruses change so much each year through mutations that you might get a case but a milder version of it.

Because some doctors have a practic3 where they will see you in the hospital, but also in the office as your primary care doc. Hospitalists only practice in the hospital. They do not become your primary doctor after you are discharged. Also hospitalists are typically employees of the hospital. Not in private practice. At least in the midwest.

#9: THE VACCINES DO NOT STOP TRANSMISSION OR INFECTION
Wait, what? Aren't these vaccines supposed to be what we've been waiting for to "go back to normal"? Nope.
Why do you think we're getting all these conflicting messages about needing to practice social distancing and wear masks AFTER we get a vaccine?
The reason is because these vaccines were never designed to stop transmission OR infection.
If you don't believe me, I refer you again to the papers submitted to the FDA I linked to above.
The primary endpoint (what the vaccines are meant to accomplish) is to lower your symptoms.
Sounds like just about every other drug on the market right?
That's it... lowering your symptoms is the big payoff we've been waiting for.
Does that seem completely pointless to anyone but me?

(1) "handful" of "vaccine"-related deaths? Handful is 5. There have been a LOT more than 5 "vaccine"-related deaths.
(2) It is not a "fact" that the "vaccine" prevented any deaths whatsoever. Considering it did not prevent transmission nor spread of the virus. However, it is an actual fact that the "vaccine" caused harm and death on a large scale.

I knew the testing was all theater early on. We were supposed to be tested at random. So I went twice. The second time they left me on my own to take my nose sample. I simply put the q-tip into the jar without probing my proboscis.
Result: Negative. Not "We did not have material for a sample; please come in again." Just "negative."
I stopped going, and there were never any repercussions. There was no enforcement. They just expected us to comply like good little workers.

My Doc is not pleased. In order to keep privileges at Big Hospital he had to go completely on board. Now, it's as others have stated, the room has a computer instead of my hand written chart. The computer, which is linked to Big Hospital, owns the room. I'm thinking, as soon as he gets everything paid off, he's out of there.

People don't realize the historical, independent mindset of doctors. That's why they called it a practice. It was like a fighter pilot; they received the training then it was their judgement, their call on what it was and how to treat it. It was work in the safe zone.

I think the reason they killed off the J&J vaccine was not really because of the adverse events. It was the one-dose nature of it, making it impossible to hide the adverse events. When people had adverse events from the J&J vax, nobody could use the rhetorical cover they used with the other two-dose vaccines. That cover being that you are not considered "vaccinated" after one dose.
Therefore, "you are not having a reaction to the shot we just fucking gave you, because you haven't been vaccinated yet."
I can't believe the straightfaced cons they pulled.
And no one will be punished. Because culpability is spread all over our society from top to bottom. It's like murdering Julius Caesar, if everybody has a knife in their hand, then nobody can be punished.

I would watch it when it aired and it didn't bother me much until it hit streaming, then seeing how much of an ass House was in a 3 hour stretch made me hate the show when it was just 'meh' before
I think having a week between shows would let you decompress from it and you don't remember how awful he was. When it was binge watching, I began to wonder why would anyone put their careers on the line for him when he's been a complete douche bucket for 3 episodes in a row?

Marjorie Taylor-Greene Now Pallin' Around With Terrorist-Supporting Chinese-Funded Antiamerica Group Code Pink
The founder of the left-wing Code Pink organization, Medea Benjamin, hailed outgoing Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., on Wednesday, saying she will "miss" her support for peace. Many on social media expressed shock and criticism at the odd pairing, while some observers mentioned "horseshoe theory" -- the idea that the extremes on the right and left have more in common with each other than with moderates. "We visited Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene today to thank her for becoming such a strong anti war voice in congress and tell her we will miss her," Benjamin wrote in a statement on X. Greene faced heavy backlash for the meeting from conservative commentators who argued it was a betrayal of values. ... Greene herself explained the meeting in a statement on social media, saying he was committed to her anti-war stance. ... "I've learned to find bridges with others and that's how we all win and ultimately leads to peace," she added.I noticed a while ago that some people on the "right" -- the psuedoright, I call it -- seemed to be so happy to finally be able to be frenz with left-wingers that they rushed to adopt their positions. I remember being glad myself that some far-left people like Jimmy Dore seemed kind of based on a lot of issues, like covid vaccinations and Russiagate. It felt good to end the long political war with at least some members of the left. But then I noticed that people like Tucker Carlson and Megyn Kelly weren't just happy to hear Glenn Greenwald and Anna Kasparian agreeing with some rightist positions. They decided to return the favor and begin endorsing some extremist left-wing opinions themselves, like blaming Israel for Hamas' 10/7 massacre and generally adopting the Islamofascist talking point that Islam is a religion of peace and the only group making trouble between Christians and Muslims are, get this, The Jews. Glenn Greenwald is apparently so charismatic that he honeytrapped Megyn Kelly and Tucker Carlson. He honeydicked them. They've literally all adopted the exact positions held by the far left a year after 9/11. Except they don't just Blame America First, they Blame Israel First, and Blame America Second. Other than that: Identical. In their rush to oppose every part of neoconservativism, they've now made themselves enemies of foundational basic conservatism as well. This isn't the far right, it's the far left.

At some point you have to realize these people aren’t on your side. They snuck into the tent are trying to tear it down from the inside. Only question is if you let them.
Tucker is coming home to the left. He will be marching with Code Pink in 2026. https://t.co/m08hQBpg43

He also makes a good case that Tucker is by far the most dangerous, because he's an intelligent man, not a hormonally driven radical chatty Kathy like MTG.
"Tucker regularly uses his platform now to promote absolutist governments and has taken to praising Sharia law. He seems enamored with people like Andrew Tate, who himself converted to Islam at least partly based on his contempt for women, and of course, he gives much more favorable treatment to Nick Fuentes, who loves Stalin and Hitler, than to Ted Cruz, whom he hates with a passion. Fuentes, too, is on a Jihad against women and argues that Islam is right about women. "
Tucker is no longer "America First" - he is Qatar First. He is now actively trying to tear down everything Trump is trying to do, from the inside. I mark him as one of the most dangerous men to America alive today

When Putin's oligarchs advertised on Facebook for Trump and against Clinton, this wasn't just because they were really, really righteous Christians and patriots. They wanted to get someone like Tucker Carlson.
Of course they are unhappy with Trump. Trump is making the US stronger, not weaker, and is still involved abroad, now also with Venezuela. This bodes badly for Putin and the Chinese communists' goals.

1. AI was further along at connection words than I had expected.
2. It is really easy to look intelligent if you are good at connection the right words.
3. The will never allow it to reflect the truth because if it did, the entire world of lies would collapse.
That second point is key though. I think Tucker and MTG are just really good at looking coherent. They have both revealed that they are stupid grifters who are very practiced at staying the right things to get attention.

MTG is a coarse old fame hag and I never liked her. Not that this is important, only to say that I can spot a fake a million miles away.Code Pink, eh? What's next? Antifa? BLM? MTG made her $20 million in Congress and quit when she got her pension for life.
Same with Tucker and his goofy giggle.Send me your clicks!!! Everyone is a fag! Including, possibly, Tucker?
I admit to liking Megan again, after her betrayal in 2016. A bit of a loss but I'll get over it.
I never much liked Bug-eyed Owens, the click-me- for $ whore. But thought she was smart and well spoken in the past. Now I think she's batsh*t insane.

The old paymasters have faded away. The new Paymasters, Qatar, Iran, and the Cartels are offering way more money than the old paymasters ever dreamed of paying out.
Of course with MTG courting Code Pink she's establishing a direct financial lifeline to the CCP, through Neville Singh.

But back to Boebert one thing I would caution here though in all seriousness, people do all sorts of dumb, silly things. If you demand that Republican officeholders can never do that you are going to end up with very few Republican office holders.

Someone can be homely as hell, but still be beautiful. It comes from inside, not outside. You can read crazy on faces, you can likewise read debauchery, and all the other outrageous life behaviors on many faces.
Beauty is skin deep, but ugly goes clean to the bone.

Exactly. They reject basic conservatism, and it contorts them to hear "Judeo-Christian" , because of the Judeo portion. So they go en masse against Evangelicals, lose their collective shite over "Christian Zionism", and I guess Dispensationalism, because they were raised to believe by their filthy, backward parents and grandparents that the Church erased and replaced the Jews and their Covenant with God. Total heresy, rejected by the Catholic church even, but preached in some quarters by "the enemy".

This is where the Somali fraud stands out -- it was allowed and ignored because everyone in power has a grift, and this was just theirs. Omar went from debt to $30 million in 4 years thanks to that.
So people like MTG and Tucker, they see the grift and they don't think "this is bad, I am going to be different," they see it and think "Where can I get some of that?"
The answer for them was Qatar and China. Big deal they are now traitors -- everyone in DC is. They stay up nights thinking about other people getting rich, they don't have to to think of patriotism or the future of our society.

It sucks to always have to choose the lesser of two evils but voting for greater evil is not an option.
Those that advocate burning it all down so that things can be built up again seem to forget the one tiny little thing--there is no guarantee that any future government will be better that the current regime. In history, most are usually worse until you get back some facsimile of the old regime or you go through three generations of misery in order for the new awful regime to collapse.

It's become clear to me that this whole Fuentes/Jew-hate thing is an op. And Tucker and his bunch are part of it. Are they willing, or just honeydicked dupes, I don't know.
I'm just trying to figure out who is behind this op. Islam/Qatar obviously, splintering American right support for Israel would be right in their interests of course, but it's more than that. I think the Chicoms are behind a lot of this shit as well. It's all about subverting MAGA/Trump and reassertion of US dominance and all that.
And the Deep State is in on that as well. This is a complicated business. But it's very clever and dangerous.

It is a definitions thing, if you use 80s definitions of words, when the definitions were fixed, then nothing, however when you use definitions where words mean whatever the speaker want then he's a racist, sexist, transphobe

The TPUSA thing reminds me of the Project Veritas saga from a few years ago. Veritas was very effective - too effective - so it had to be destroyed, mostly from within. James O'Keefe wasn't murdered, but his character was certainly assassinated. Looking back, those may have been the more civil times.

I think these dickface fucknuggets were always left or at least left-adjacent. It's just that earlier in their "careers," they found less competition in more right-leaning spheres. So they hid or obscured their true lefty aspirations in order to cater to this audience.
But then, once they've "made it" they no longer feel the need to fake it anymore. They thus drift to the natural place they always wanted to be: left.
This is doubly true when it comes to Israel and DA JOOZ. For a long time, even most lefty Democraps supported (or at least claimed to support) Israel and the Jew's right to exist. Certainly the psuedoright did.
But in the last few years, there was such an explosion of outspoken Jew-hate that it was no longer necessary to play the game. They didn't have to hide their hate any more.

Several prominent conservatives have turned on a dime. It happens, probably grifters. But hear me out. Michelle Malkin was once very influential, then her cousin disappears. Not long after Michelle steps out of the picture. Brian Kemp's daughter's boyfriend dies in fiery crash, Kemp does 180 on election audit. Maybe for Tucker it is Qatar money, MTG and Owens, maybe something else. Maybe grift, maybe messages are being sent and they could step out of the picture, or get paid from a different source. Tim Pool gets shots fired on his property the other day. Someone shot at Trump and no one knows anything about him except some sketchy details.
Carry on.

Strom nearly hits the target but at the back of all of this is a stark truth.
The elites in the West have given up on popular democracy and that means they are willing to consider moving to authoritarianism whether Muslim state-religion, Communism, or Fascism.
Elites positively hate now the assorted regular people of the globe that just want to get on with life, have kids, and not worry so much about the future while clinging to their guns and religion.
Our ruling elites in the West want us citizens either dead, neutered, impoverished, and subservient to their whims. Nasty critters after ultimate power is the only hypotheses explaining the past half century of policy in the West.
Trump, MAGA, and assorted freedom fighters around the world composed of ordinary citizens are in their way for their version of Utopia for them, hell on earth for us.

On the one hand, the MAGA coalition is a big tent of American nationalists, which includes a lot of cultural leftists, from (merely anti-woke) secular tech bros to the "crunchy moms" of MAHA, so leftism by itself isn't a disqualifier. On the other hand, there is actual inconsistency out there, as supposedly conservative NeverTrumpers now reliably spout Democrat talking points, and apparent pan-nationalists make a singular exception for Zionism as the one kind of nationalism they cannot express brotherly respect for.
As Pixy Misa reminds us, the LLMs of GenAI are just a fancy auto-complete. But I would go further and say that even if a century from now we got synthetic cognition, we can never offload our thinking and judgement to it, because it can never be sure who to trust either, because that's the hardest puzzle to solve, because it's an opposed task. Every heuristic you can come up with will immediately be life-hacked by con artists to cheat you.

His comments were abridged and made to seem to be comments about black women in general and played on bluesky, twitter, youtube, instagram etc. Thus there are a lot of people who have only heard those edited remarks. Mind you, the full remarks are blistering towards the individuals in question. But, he his quoting there public statements back to them and fisking them.... many people who use those sources for information never know the whole story.

That is pretty much not at all true.
The idea of a political spectrum is a vast oversimplification of what large groups of people support (I'm deliberately not using the word "think"). It assumes that the two political parties represent (LOL) large concentrations of opinion or effectively define the endpoints of debate on a particular topic.
In truth, there are a great many axes, one for any significant topic, and only a few of them are getting attention at any particular time. People gravitate towards the group they have most current agreement with, and the weaker minded/less principled ones will adjust their other opinions to fit in. That's all you're seeing in the horseshoe.

MTG is a grifting annoying bulldog whereas Bonnie is just a wide-eyed, sad, petite slut. The difference I think that with MTG, she pretends that she is one thing while grifting for money while Bonnie, never pretends and presents herself as she is for all takers.

Well, I would say Die Hard, but Fatman is certainly a contender.
Miracle on 34th St is always good. The original The Bishop's Wife, if only for the 1947 cutting edge special effects.
As for A Christmas Carol, I'm partial to the vinyl recording by Barrymore. It's available on Youtube. Dad used to play that Christmas Eve and then it was time for kids to go to bed.

A terrible movie, which I hated even as a wee tad when it first came out.
And yet, I remember it very clearly.
So, there's something there. God knows what it is.

Above all, she is for MTG, and has a high school mentality. There are two kinds of people: those who loved HS and wished it never ended, and those who loathed it and couldn’t wait for it to end. Guess what group MTG belongs to?

Meanwhile, it's MURDERING MILLIONS around the world.
I find that VERY hard to forgive.
Trump is not a doctor and is a germophobe. I don’t know what he knew (and neither do you). COVID came out of a PRC bio-weapons lab and might have been much worse. It was NOT an influenza virus, but in retrospect was comparable to a bad, but not very bad, flu epidemic. Think 1968 flu not 1918. The measures taken against it were nonsense and proven not to work by measures taken against the Spanish Flu of 1918-1919. Isolation, masking, and distancing were tried then and made no difference. They didn’t work this time either. I think Trump was manipulated by his advisors like Fauci and Birx, but they, Fauci and Birx, were in on the scam. Frankly, I think Trump was too trusting of people like them and got fooled into “solving” the problem with a dubious “vaccine” technology: the MRNA approach. Again I think Trump didn’t know how dangerous that approach is: he just didn’t know and trusted his “experts”.

Trump was naive, but well intentioned. He never called for a national shut-down: that was due to state and community leaders. The mandatory “vaccination” occurred under Biden not Trump. It was not required in my state, and I worked for the state: I never took it. The MRNA based “vaccine” should be outlawed. Some countries are moving in that direction. That is one thing I will hold against Trump. He doesn’t want to admit how badly he was fooled. Let’s hope that once burnt, twice shy applies here. I know I will never blindly accept vaccination again, but will research what it is first. Basically do not accept any MRNA-based shot.

Kinda like never meeting your heroes, because they'll disappoint you. Be a fucking grownup. Of *course* they will. They're mere mortals.
All or nothing -- especially in politics -- is one of the dumbest postures to take.
